If you’ve ever been told that “men are from Mars and women are from Venus,” Book 1 of this series invites you to throw that old script out the window. Down to Earth: Busting the Myths of Mars and Venus is a sharp, engaging, and deeply clarifying exploration of how we came to believe in the grand fiction of “opposite sexes” — and why it’s time to retire it.
With a clear voice and a storyteller’s instinct, this book dismantles the cultural myths that have shaped our expectations of gender for centuries. It traces how pseudo‑science, pop psychology, and inherited social norms have been woven into a narrative that feels natural, inevitable, and unquestionable — even though it’s none of those things. Instead of blaming biology for the world as it is, Down to Earth brings readers back to the real forces at play: history, power, conditioning, and the stories we’ve been taught to accept as truth.
This is not an academic lecture. It’s a lively, accessible, myth‑busting journey that leaves readers feeling informed, energised, and ready to see gender with fresh eyes. And for those eagerly awaiting Book 2, this is the perfect foundation. The next instalment will go even deeper into how these myths were built, who benefits from them, and how we can finally move beyond them.

A clearer understanding of sex, gender and the reality of Sexism and Misogyny begins here. And the sequel, Book 2: Who Put the Boys in Charge? is on its way.
Inequality between the sexes is
RIGGED.
Why? Who benefits?
Until we root out the deliberate processes that maintain it,
it will never change.
The imbalance in human affairs this has caused is leading us on a downhill path to self-destruction.
This is not about pitting men against women but returning to the natural balance that both sexes and all genders provide.
Available in hard cover, paperback, large print, eBook and Audio book.
A life time of experience, asking "Why is it so?" Decades of research through history, palaeontology, anthropology, sociology, psychology, philosophy, mythology, religion and culture.This is Book 1 in a series that explores the greatest lie we have ever told ourselves, who benefits, what's the harm, how is it maintained and why do we not see it when it is right under our noses?There was a time when women and men were equals, both sharing tasks, responsibility and status for the wellbeing of the species. What happened?
In this book, I explore the history of women's nosedive from partner to property, the creation of gender stereotypes, and the disadvantages, waste and damage they cause to both males and females and all genders. I also uncover why it's been so hard to change, and demonstrate that our progress is actually going backwards. I provide practical steps to counteract this and bring about positive change for the good of ourselves and the planet.
