Since the beginning of time, men and women have been trying to unravel the mystery of the opposite sex. By now, we should have mastered that task. However, even as we progress by leaps and bounds, the 'man-woman' mystery remains as big as ever.
Simply stated, most men and women just don't understand each other. Needless to say, there are loads of theories about that, but when you're sitting next to the love of your life, you're not sitting next to a theory. Theories just won't do. Communication is clearly the key, but that's not as easy as it sounds. So, with that thought in mind, this book takes a more personal and interactive approach to the male-female conundrum.
The idea for this book was born a number of years ago while on a drive with a man I had been dating for about three months. I can’t for the life of me remember what it was that he said, but I do remember the voice in my head yelling... "Well, that would have been nice to know three months ago!"
As with any good shot in the arm, comes inspiration. Mine was to give the world a simple way to find out loads about the opposite sex without growing old first!
So, armed with a burning desire, I asked men and women from around North America the following question:
"If you could ask the opposite sex one question and get an honest answer, what would it be?"
A lot of men said they had no questions; most thought they knew what makes women tick. Yet, a day or two later, those very same men called me to say, "You know, I was thinking, there is something I'd like to know..." Surprise, surprise! Their questions came pouring in.
Do women have to be emotionally attached to a man before they want to have sex? What is the best thing a man can say or do to make a woman feel loved and cherished forever? Why do some women fake orgasm, and what does an orgasm feel like for a woman? What do women enjoy most about being a woman? What is the biggest misconception men have about women?
Women on the other hand, had no time lag; they had loads of questions.
What keeps a man interested after the infatuation period? What do men mean when they say like sexually aggressive women? Why is it so hard for men to ask for directions? Why do so many men freeze up when women say things like... "We need to talk"? What are the three best lines a woman can use to pick up a man?
***************
Using this book is simple. Just read a few questions to someone sitting nearby (or even a group of people) and you'll be off. You can "Leave it to Fate," "Pick & Choose," or go from "A to Z."
Leave it to Fate: This is the method for the daring. As the name implies, fate will decide which question you ask the answering party. If you are a woman, open the book to the "Questions for Men to Answer" section and randomly flip to a page. Read that question to your partner, and let the fun begin. If you’re a man, open the book to the "Questions for Women to Answer" section, and you know the rest.
Pick & Choose: This is a method for the more cautious. Just flip through the questions for the opposite sex and pick the ones that move you.
A to Z: This method is for the more methodical among us. Start from the first question, and work your way through your half of the book. **Beware: Don't attempt this all in one sitting!
Some Extra Pointers
For the best results, follow these pointers while using the book:
• Be honest.
• Try not to interrupt.
• Don’t take what you hear personally; it’s not about you.
• Try not to judge.
• Don’t ask a question you really don’t want to know the answer to.
• If you want to know the answer to a question you’ve just been asked, simply say... "And what about you?"
• And if you really don’t want to answer a question you’ve been asked, just take the fifth!
But most importantly...
• Listen with an open heart and mind.
