When we started the research for For Men Only, to help men understand women, we tried to figure out where the disconnect might be. I suggested that we do a chapter on this issue of security, but Jeff was puzzled. He said every guy knows that women need security.  The book was only going to be about the surprises that guys tend not to get about women, and he didn’t think a woman’s need for security was a surprise.

But then I asked Jeff what he thought women meant by security…

Jeff said that he thought that it means women want to be sure that they’ll be provided for… to know that the mortgage is going to be paid, that there will be food on the table, and that there is a little money put away for retirement.

I was like, “You mean… financial security?”

Jeff responded, “Right, what else is there?”
