Introduction We are born naked, wet, and hungry. Then things get worse. CHINESE PROVERB Why do men tell lies? Why do they feel they have to be right about everything? Why do they avoid commitment? On the other hand, why do women cry to get their own way? Why do they insist on talking a subject to death? Why don’t they initiate sex more often? The gulf between the sexes, the misunderstandings and the conflict, even in the twenty- first century, are still as present in all our lives as they were when Adam first fell foul of Eve. In three decades of research into the differences between men and women, conducting experiments, analysing miles of film footage, writing books, talking on television and sharing information at conferences, we’ve received tens of thousands of questions about why we men and women behave in certain ways. The letters, the phone calls and the emails all come from people baffled by the kind of things the opposite sex does, and who feel frustrated and helpless in knowing exactly how to deal with them. As a result, we wrote Why Men Lie and Women Cry. Here, we’ve catalogued 40 of the most frequently asked questions from readers and audiences around the world and have endeavoured to answer them using our experience, research, surveys, latest studies, the sciences and, lastly, common sense. We then developed workable solutions to get you on the right track to communicating with the opposite sex. Why Men Lie and Women Cry tackles those big ‘need-to-know’ questions women ask themselves at lam on Sunday morning. Questions like, “Why do men ogle other women?” and “Why do they always keeping telling me what to do and how to think?” Then there are those complexities men wrestle Why Men Lie and Women Cry
