Men and Women in Interaction Reconsidering the Differences
- Binding: Paperback

Description:
For many years the dominant focus in gender relations has been the differences between men and women. Authors such as Deborah Tannen (^IYou Just Don't Understand^R) and John Gray (^IMen are from Mars, Women are from Venus^R) have argued that there are deep-seated and enduring differences between male and female personalities, styles, even languages. Elizabeth Aries sees the issue as more complex and dependent on several variables, among them the person's status, role, goals, conversational partners, and the characteristics of the situational context. Aries discusses why we emphasize the differences between the sexes, the ways in which these are exaggerated, and how we may be perpetuating the very stereotypes we wish to abandon. For psychologists and researchers of gender and communication, this book will illuminate recent studies in gender relations. For general readers it will offer a stimulating counterpoint to prevailing views.
