The Shocking Truth Behind What Men Really Think About Women was a thoroughly reviewed and researched book. It was really interesting to read how the men responded to the questions and the chosen research questions were enlightening and fleshed out to learn the most possible from the answers. I liked the fictional men that were created to conversationally review how these thought patterns would be reasoned in a real life conversation.

Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this book early on! Best wishes for a successful launch :)

This was a really interesting read which is split into different questions such as 'Would a man be put off if a woman earnt more than him?' or 'Do men think women are equal?'. The author explores each question not just by throwing the results of the survey at you but through a unique way involving 3 fictional characters. I thought this was done really well and felt refreshing instead of just reading a book full of stats and research.

I will admit at times it was an infuriating read but not because of the writing but the answers to the survey from the men.

Each chapter follows the same structure: question, fictional characters thoughts, a look back through time and then finally the survey results.

Definitely a book I'd recommend if you're intrigued by what men really think...some of the answers might just surprise you!

i actually really enjoyed it, even though the entire time i was thinking "UGH MEN 😡🙄"

i think the fictional men are a great device to show men's opinions through, but reading buddy's idiotic opinions did make me want to walk into the ocean. he's obviously a representative of misogynistic beliefs, so i suppose most women would feel the same. but omg if all men were like that... 🤢🤢🤢

i found all the chapters super interesting and not too repetitive (for the most part, it did get a little repetitive in the middle there because some of the chapters were a similar concept).

also, this quote from one of the female survey respondents really got me:

"the idea of a smart woman is sexy, the reality of a woman smarter than themselves is often harder for them to stomach"

I could relate to the characters in certain moments while reading
I agree with some points of view, however not all of them. Reading made me think about society as a whole and I feel that men dont need to try that hard because our entire culture is built around their needs and preferences. Anyway, was fun
