I find listening to people emote extremely stressful, myself. It gives me a headache and a stomach tied in knots. Yuck.
Give me a rational discussion, any day!
Eeew I know. I do too. But I often hear women start dumping on men, not usually the other way around.

Being a left-handed male operating in my right mind, I find this very simplistic and significantly incorrect. Actually, women are fearful of my participation in a discussion because my responses are incongruent with emoting burst emanating from participating females. This male can communicate with females up to the point when they are reacting like novice teenagers and that is when I head for the door. Ash Wednesday, I brought a large pie to the kitchen at church, and the lady boss did not even bother to warm it in the microwave. Duh! That is totally unacceptible in my world, and I cook my own meals. Really difficult dealing with dumb uneducated females on eHarmony.

I think this post sounds pretty emotional.

Football is emotional!

From the author's point of view it sounds like this book should be titled "The Male Brain: Averages 5.5 inches in Length".

Did anyone else click on the link about getting a free copy, fill out and submit the form?  Did any of you actually ever get a copy of the book free?
I filled it out twice, like six weeks ago, then again about two weeks ago, and still haven't heard anything about getting the free book. 
Just wondering if that 'free book' deal was just a scam by the publisher or something to collect contact information...???

Thanks cc1979 for your comment!

We actually DID give away 150 copies of the book - we had such a response, the publisher tripled the initial offer of 50!!!

I know that some Members already received their copies - if you want to PM me your info I can try to check with the publisher to see if your name was among the first 150 they collected.

Hope this helps!

Best,
-Lori

I received my FREE copy 2 weeks ago. Thanks Yoga girl!

I was sitting by the computer when the announcement was made, and I think I responded in less than one minute. Perhaps that's why I got one.

I have not really read it yet, however.
