I do have to ask that when you read that STATEMENT did YOU actually read the entire thing (from beginning to end) or did you just scan and take what you wanted out of it..... bits & pieces? I ask this for if one read the entire section they would see that it told why the Surface statement was not true.... but a false interpetation based on that of others and that the second part would tell why one might look or appear this way when they are not:
FIRST PART: Surface Understanding #6: Men are unromantic clods. (the false assumption)
SECOND PART: What that means in practice: Actually, most men enjoy romance, sometimes in different ways than females, and want to be romantic — but hesitate because they doubt they can succeed.
(truth for many MEN - but YES, not all) - (surveys are never 100% - and no one should ever believe they are)
IMHO - I do believe this thread is being taken to literally, no leave way for the ones it does pertain to and that others are making it a political things.... instead of a self HELP for those females that cannot get their MAN to open up and talk to them (that which btw happens very often for some of us - even if we do try).
This book can be a TOOL to get couples talking about IF this is true or not of him..... Like I did with MY MAN, and I found that some where correct, some were half & half and some did not pertain at all to him - but all in all my MAN liked the book (and the many others I gave given the book to)..... PLUS, many of the men I gave the book to their wives liked the understanding if gives of him the male.
I know that people will not always agree with everything that is said or done in life..... but please do not wreck the HELP that could be available for others - this book is just like any religion, doctor, surgery options, medicine, diet, etc..... it will be for some and then again not for others - BUT that does not make it wrong.
