For more than twenty years, John Gray’s Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus has helped couples deepen their intimacy and rejuvenate their love lives. This landmark book showed that men and women communicate so differently, we might as well be from different planets. By learning to speak each other’s language, millions of people dramatically improved, even saved, their relationships. But the world has changed. As the roles of men and women evolve, relationships must evolve as well. To meet our new needs, we require a new kind of relationship.

In this episode Dr. Gray discusses with Leaha and Howard how a complex world has put more demands on both men and women, who are now more free to move beyond the restrictions of traditional gender roles to embrace their authentic selves. But men and women are physically different and appreciating underlying physiology, especially hormones and hormonal regulation, can provide clarity and guidance for both partners in a relationship.
