Women May Be from Venus...But Men Are Really from Uranus: A Parody of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus and Other John Gray Books
Wouldn't it be nice to read a book about relationships that made you laugh instead of point fingers? Now you can. Katherine Black, armed with her biting wit and in-your-face directness, takes on John Gray's over-simplified psycho-babble relationship books and delivers a knockout punch.Read why men could not possibly have come from Mars or any planet other than Uranus, how women are responsible for setting up civilization, and why men are inept when it comes to communicating with women.If you enjoy satire packed with a healthy dose of reality, get ready for a wild and hilarious ride!

I desperately needed funny. This wasn't.
Really disappointed. Very sophomoric, as it changes tone from stupid jokes to a rant against the author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus. (I read and reviewed that book, which is based on relationship counseling. It was so-so).
Then I read Women Are from Bras, Men Are from Penus, and that was a corny and stilted parody.
But this one was terrible.
I only finished 50% then DNF. I know some people claim that if DNF, it's not fair to write a review, but as this was non-fiction, there are no plot changes that could make me change my mind. I didn't expect it to get any better.

This a great book to read with your spouse. When me and my then husband were having marital problems , our counselor advised us to read this book..

Raises a lot of good points but it is hidden in some bitter humour
