Do I really need this?

by lone_eagle , Jul 04 '02
Pros: Informative and very detailed accounts
Cons: Some parts of the book tend to get repititive
'Tell me something I don’t know!'

That’s the first thing that came to my mind as I saw the title in the bookstore. On reading the back cover of the book, I didn’t find anything that would make me want to buy the book, so I passed.

Let's All Perpetuate Some Gender Stereotypes

by AdaDavis , Jan 31 '01
Pros: Nice heft for throwing at spiders on the wall.
Cons: Everything between the front and back cover.
Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus by John Gray, Ph.D. is supposed to be a guide for improving communications between men and women. While I feel a bit like a salmon heading home to spawn, I am going to say that I do not like this book. I...

The Opposite Planets Collide

by nlee31 , May 02 '01
Pros: enables you to understand the opposite sex in more detail

Okay, Okay, so it took me a while to get to this one, but I have to say that I am glad I made the plunge.

Hello? Earth to Mars...

by spiderwisdom , Nov 24 '99
Pros: Help for the Truly Clueless
Cons: Gimmicky, smarmy, and full of cr*p
I found this book interesting because, you see, my mother is from Venus and my father is from Mars, and that means I am half-Martian and half-Venusian.

This really explains a lot, actually, like why I withdraw when I’m feeling too close...

by shulamite , May 04 '00

Cons: none that i can think of.
This book changed my life. The allegory of men and women being from different planets provides a foundation for the reader to comprehend the motives and intentions behind common behaviors of the opposite sex. Dr. Gray is witty, intelligent, and...

Good Concept, But the Presentation Could Use Some Polish

by d_design , Jan 13 '00
Pros: Food for thought on relationships, I found his opinions to be right-on in most cases
Cons: Ingratiating. Writing style is bland and repetitive
I thought this book was right-on in most cases. As with everything, there are exceptions. So...why only 3 stars? I think Gray's editor fell asleep on the job.

Gray's basic premise is that women operate in "waves" emotionally....

Mars and Venus in Love: a woman's opinion

by angel_adc , May 31 '00
Pros: not a bestseller
Cons: everything
What a waste of time! I read this book and I found myself getting so upset that I could not finish it. I have not read Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars, but this offspring was not worth the five bucks I spent on it.

by aubdaddy , Nov 24 '99
Pros: Dr. Gray knows his stuff.
Cons: None
I don't know how this book got put into such a screwed up category, but I'll give my opinion on it anyway. If you are in a relationship, get this book! Get it now. Don't think about getting it later. Don't ask your friends about it. Wake up. Put your...

Men: Stay on Mars

by heinousleecha , May 19 '00
Pros: none that I can discern
Cons: an insult to the realists who believe a successful relationship is based on mutual respect
Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus is the most ridiculous piece of male-propagated, sexist drivel I have ever read. Admittedly, I was so horrified by John Gray’s implications that women should do whatever is necessary to please their men that I...
