Men Are from Mars Women Are from Venus《男人来自火星，女人来自金星》讲述自古以来，不论中外，女性在以男权为中心的社会中都处于一种被压抑的状态。社会不曾给予女性受教育与参与各种社会意见的机会，女性的作用似乎只是一个家庭的看护者，甚且在一夫多妻的社会里可能沦为男人性需求与繁衍后代的工具。女性的聪明才智既受到压抑，在有限的社会圈子里投诉无门，只好把满腹的不平潜藏于心，做一名杜基体装下的驯服者，或是化为泼辣抗俗，为人论柄。女性为男人附属品的位置一坐几千年，所幸本世纪初女权运动因争取女性的政治投票权，加上战争期间，许多女人取代了男人的工作地位，女性才得以走出家庭，在社会建设上发挥其一压数千年的才干。
Once upon a time Martians and Venusians met, fell in love, and had happy relationships together because they respected and accepted their differences. Then they came to Earth and amnesia set in: they forgot they were from different planets.
Based on years of successful counseling of couples and individuals, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus has helped millions of couples transform their relationships. Now viewed as a modern classic, this phenomenal book has helped men and women realize how different they really are and how to communicate their needs in such a way that conflict doesnt arise and intimacy is given every chance to grow.

  Imagine that men are from Mars and women are from Venus. One day long age the Martians, looking through their telescopes, discovered the Venusians. Just glimpsing the Venusians awakened feelings they had never known. They fell in love and quickly invented space travel and flew to Venus.
  The Venusians welcomed the Martians with open arms. They had intuitively known that this day would come. Their hearts opened wide to a love they had never felt before.
  The love between the Venusians and Martians was magical. They delighted in being together, doing things together, and sharing together. Though from different worlds, they reveled(take delight in) in their differences. They spent months learning about each other, exploring and appreciating their different needs, preferences, and behavior patterns. For years they lived together in love and harmony.
  Then they decide to fly to earth. In the beginning everything was wonderful and beautiful. But the effects of Earths atmosphere took hold, and one morning everyone woke up with a peculiar kind of amnesia-selective amnesia—selective amnesia.
  Both the Martians and Venusians forgot that they were from different planets and were supposed to be different. In one morning everything they had learned about their differences was erased from their memory. And since that day men and women have been in conflict.
