From the page: A married couple was in a car when the wife turned to her husband and asked, "Would you like to stop for a coffee?" "No, thanks," he answered truthfully. So they didn't stop. The result? The wife, who had indeed wanted to stop, became annoyed because she felt her preference had not been considered. The husband, seeing his wife was angry, became frustrated. Why didn't she just say what she wanted? Unfortunately, he failed to see that his wife was asking the question not to get an instant decision, but to begin a negotiation. And the woman didn't realize that when her husband said no, he was just expressing his preference, not making a ruling. When a man and woman interpret the same interchange in such conflicting ways, it's no wonder they can find themselves leveling angry charges of selfishness and obstinacy at each other.

Something every person should read. It tells us how men and women think and it helps us to understand each-other

1. Great help in understanding everyday communication problems 2. What is the cause of those different approaches? Socialization? 3. Why is the "women" tag more popular than the "men" tag here?

I really like how this explains, plainly, how men and women communicate differently and how to bridge that gap in all degrees of relationships from personal to professional.
