Story Behind the Book
About five minutes after For Women Only hit the shelves, women started talking about it in small groups, book clubs, and coffee houses—and with their men. And about five days after that, Shaunti started getting e-mails saying, “We could really use something to help us work through these subjects.” For Women Only has opened the eyes of women to things they never understood about men before. Now, the For Women Only Discussion Guide will help them talk through and apply those truths to their lives.

From the back of the book:
Discover the Truth He Wants You to Know
The man in your life carries important feelings so deep inside he barely knows they’re there, much less how to talk about them. Yet your man genuinely wantsyou to “get” him—to understand his inner life, to know his fears and needs, to hear what he wishes he could tell you.
In her landmark bestseller, For Women Only, Shaunti Feldhahn reveals what every woman—single or married—needs to know. Based on rigorous research with thousands of men, Shaunti delivers one eye-opening revelation after another, including:
• Why your respect means more to him than your love.
• How he feels deep inside about his role as provider.
• What it means for a man to be so visually “wired.”
• Why sex for him is primarily emotional, not physical.
• What he most wishes he could say to you.
Now, in this expanded and updated edition, you’ll find insights from the latest brain research plus an all-new chapter that shows what’s really going on when he seems to “check out.” (You’ll be surprised and pleased.)
Millions worldwide have experienced dramatic change in their relationships because of the “aha” moments and practical ideas in this little book. Discover how to love your man for who he really is.
This is a great little book! There is so much good information here for women to understand their men. From the simple concepts of showing him respect, to understanding that he likes his lady looking good.

I am not the kind of woman who likes study guides for non-fiction/self-help books. But I am so very thankful the Lord brought this study guide into my hands. This is not your typical fill-in-the blank answer verbatim what you just read. Nor is it a find Bible verses on this subject, or look up this verse and talk about what it means in the lines below.
This is a put into practice what you just read study guide. It puts practical application on the chapter you just read. And what I truly love, is the brining your husband and what HE wants into your practical application.
I would highly encourage you to get this study guide if you are reading the book. It truly enhanced the reading experience and put "skin" on how to apply what I learned into my relationship with my husband.
