About this listen

Why Men Are the Way they Are is what women don't know about men - and men don't know about themselves. Dr. Warren Farrell is a pioneer of both the women's and men's movements. He started more than 300 men's and women's groups - joined by men from John Lennon to John Gray.

Oprah calls Why Men Are the Way they Are "one terrific book!"

The N.Y. Post calls it "the most important book ever written about love, sex, and intimacy."

For this audio version, Dr. Warren Farrell personally rewrote the book's highlights as if it were a dialogue between, say, you and him - allowing you to answer questions like these:

About Men:

  • How can I get him to express his feelings before he becomes angry?
  • Why are the men I am attracted to the most difficult to get along with?
  • Why are the best men the most afraid of commitment?
  • Why are men so preoccupied with sports?
  • Why can't a man be a friend before a sex partner?
  • Why are men such jerks?

OR

About Women:

  • Why do women say they'd like to hear my feelings but then withdraw when they hear my feelings?
  • If women are so liberated, why do the most attractive ones still expect me to ask them out, pay for dinner, take all the sexual initiatives, and call them in the morning?
  • Why are the women who earn the most the least interested in commitment?
  • Why are the women I'm most attracted to the most difficult to get along with?
  • Why is a woman who supports just herself called a "career woman" while a man who supports just himself is called a "playboy"?
  • Why are men denied equal opportunity to the children after divorce?
  • Why do most married women have the option to work or raise children, while their husbands have the option to work or work?

The author offers a 100 percent money back guarantee if the listener feels less-than delighted.

it's not a book but interview about what's in it

Would you try another book written by Warren Farrell or narrated by Dr. Warren Farrell?

Interesting interview with the author but I thought I was buying a book not interview about the book.

Any additional comments?

Missleading title and description.It's an interview not audiobook

Farrell's brilliant!

Short but insightful.
I think that Warren Farrell is the leading authority on mens' issues. He is always consistently objective and compassionate; he truly cares.

This is a must read or listen for anyone interested in mens' issues or the often strange and complicated relationship between men and women in society.
And I especially loved the running dialogue between the female interviewer and Farrell. Time just flew by!
I learnt a considerable degree. Great Stuff!

funny and incredibly insightful

funny and incredibly insightful. Warren can help you identify the ways in which you can improve how you communicate with your partner, and explain why men and women often see things in such different ways

The elephant in the room - no one talks about men

Although at first the 'tapes' sound a little dated; the issues they speak of in the 80s have only grown. That is the feminist narrative that men have power through job status and money; whilst often doing it out of obligation and love for women and children. Equally science doesn't care as much for men. No men's shelters and generally sending men to war.

An interview about a very dated book

Not a book. Extremely binary and dated views, assumptions and generalisations about men and women. I suppose the only useful thing is to hear the unfortunate views many people still may hold, so useful for reference, but quite pompous- sounding conclusions drawn overall.
