George Weinberg offers a practical guide on the subject of men; debunking the game playing and trendy dating philosophies of modern relationships.
Weinberg maintains men lack emotional clarity because they are under the influence of "gut reactions" which women often trigger unconsciously when they resort to obvious dating strategies and game playing.
There are some who may not agree with George Weinberg's theories, especially the one that refers to men as the "weaker sex," but this is much more than a treatise on pop culture dating rituals.

 Gay Today at Badpuppy
George Weinberg, Ph.D., author of thirteen books, is the heterosexually-inclined psychotherapist who coined the word "homophobia." (See 1996 Oxford English Dictionary.) A pioneer, he openly critiqued his profession's anti-gay stance when it was unthinkable to do so.

 Why Men Won't Commit: Getting What You Both Want Without Playing Games by George Weinberg, PhD | PopMatters Book Review
Weinberg's twist, his hook, is that he offers the opposite of the "wisdom" offered by other pop psychology pundits like John Gray.
Weinberg's book is worth considering simply because it rips apart the whole sitcom premise that men are irrational, infantile buffoons who must be managed and manipulated by well-meaning spouses or girlfriends.
Weinberg's book, with its emphasis on real-time dialogues between couples and suggestions for positive interaction that requires no perfumery or game playing, might actually help some couples achieve a better, longer lasting relationship.

Dr. Weinberg believes culture forces this role to include women placing the man of their dreams in a situation by comparing his strengths and weaknesses to his rivals.
According to Weinberg, men want emotional intimacy but run away from it when they get it; this confirms my experiences that men only want what they can't have, and don't want it anymore once they get it.
Weinberg also makes clear that men dump women for the stupidest reasons, reasons even they can't verbalize because it's nothing more than what Weinberg calls a "gut reaction".

Moreover, I feel that Weinberg often asserts that his own ideas, opinions, and practices are universal, or at the very least should be.
One of these is Weinberg's apparent attitude that he is much better off than his clients (and anyone else's too) and that, therefore, the patients deserve his pity.
Another example of his unresolved issues is that some of the "rules" that Weinberg suggests therapists adopt seem to be more about creating and maintaining some control over the patient and his or her actions both in and out of session.

Dr. George Weinberg has been a therapist for over twenty-five years.
I read the book in one sitting over the weekend, and was blown away by the accuracy of George Weinberg's analyses of men's "commitment issues," and by the incredibly useful advice to help women help men resolve the obstacles to commitment.
Setting up a few basic premises, such as the formidable "masculine pretense," the deeply embedded psychological culprit that invariably prevents men from giving up their perceived "freedom," Weinberg takes the reader from first date foibles through the minefield of bedroom behavior to pitfalls of the financial faux pas.

Dr Weinberg answers this question in Why Men Wont Commit and shows women how to help their men change their minds.
Dr Weinberg considers that men have four basic needs (the need to be special, to travel light, for loyalty and for emotional closeness) and if they feel that these aren't being met they will develop bad gut reactions against their girlfriends, which will most likely mystify these women.
This is a unique approach to an age-old problem because it shows women why they needn't play games, or lose their own dignity, to help men commit.
