Video: Why Mars and Venus Collide by John Gray

John Gray of the Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus fame wrote a book Why Mars and Venus Collide: Improving Relationships by Understanding How Men and Women Cope Differently with Stress. The video below is a short talk given by Dr. Gray.

The gist of the talk is that men and women are wired differently and have different mechanisms in place to handle stress. It is a common scenario: a husband returns home from work stressed out and eager to kick back on the couch and watch television. A wife returns home from work stressed out and wants to talk about it with her husband. What happens? Neither is on the same page, anger and resentment set in, and Mars and Venus collide. Watch this insightful talk on how to cope with stress.
