I think it was name of a book written by American author and relationship counselor John Gray, and deals with most common relationship problems between men and women, Which are a result of fundamental psychological differences between the sexes. What is the origin of the metaphor?

I always thought men were closer to animals than women are. We use instincts more and we are more violent, while women think more about many things. That's why I think this title is a good one .

@Kasjnak It's like we use our brain more and women their heart?

@amirev777 nope, it is quite the opposite . As I said, we are closer to animals, our behaviour s often based on our instincts, while women are more analytical . Sometimes too analytical .

It's a great book. My husband and I have been married 52 years and most of the time we can almost read each other's minds. At other times, it's like we're speaking two foreign languages.
