How accurate is Tannen on her analysis on male female communication ?

I think that her analysis was hit right on the head just about everything that she had to say I agreed with. She has very valid points on the communication between both sexes that I agree on. In a mans world we talk about things but we often show no or very little emotion because that's the way we are designed. In a women's world they are much more compassionate to each other and very reassuring of each other. That's where it causes problem between both sexes woman want men in a way to be like a girl best friend and show emotion and compassion which is something we find hard to do or don't do. To women when we don't show any emotion or what not they often feel that we are not listening or that we don't care but in our minds we do. Its just a hard thing to communicate between men and women the saying goes "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus". That could not be anymore true.
