Women today are dealing with both their independence and also the fact that their lives are built around finding and satisfying the romantic models we grew up with.

Men who think that a woman's past love affairs lessen her love for them are usually stupid and weak.

A lot of times, women don't get the male perspective in regards to a relationship, what men go through when they're not really dealing well.

Women are more emotional than men, so they must attach emotion to their memories.

Like their personal lives, women's history is fragmented, interrupted; a shadow history of human beings whose existence has been shaped by the efforts and the demands of others.

Sometimes a lot of us men think we are doing everything for the woman we love, but there is an aspect of a woman a man doesn't understand.

Men move through a much different process before commitment than women do.

Women love romance, but they're not as romantic as men.

A woman's life can really be a succession of lives, each revolving around some emotionally compelling situation or challenge, and each marked off by some intense experience.

Nothing changes more constantly than the past; for the past that influences our lives does not consist of what actually happened, but of what men believe happened.
