Comments
I absolutely love Mark Gungors seminars. His talent of storytelling and comedic approach to difficult problems makes his videos very entertaining and interesting to watch.
2. Do you think that comedic approach to marriage problems is more helpful then more serious one? Why?
I do not think that a certain approach can be better than others in every situation. Even though I love his way of describing marriage problems, I know people who would find serious approach more helpful.
3. Do you agree with his statement about differences in man/woman brain?
Well, those statements are funny, they even may be true sometimes, but I find differences mentioned by him a bit stereotypical. A good thing to laugh at, but in my opinion, should not be taken as an universal fact.
4. What do you think about empty box mentioned in film? Did you ever go there?
Well, I think that everybody has some kind of an emty box in his or her head. And of course, if I’m in a mood of not thinking about anything, I will go there.
2. Honestly, I don’t know, because I know nothing about psychology or marriage related problems. For some people it could be more helpful, but it depends on the way someone acquires new information. While watching that short fragment I had an impression that it would be more helpful for women because men were portraited as those who suffer from women’s lack of understanding their brain.
3. I think that this statement is very generalised. Maybe from the statistical perspective we could say that majority of people represents their genders by those factors, but I am quite sure that everyone is different and there are men who behave just like Mark Gungor’s description of woman and vice versa. His theory is probably mostly true, because if I confront it with my observations I see that indeed men are usually ashamed of their failures and problems, so they don’t want to talk about it which is opposite to what women do.
4. Would it be naïve and untrue if I said that I have no empty box in my head? I just can’t understand dumb sitting in front of a TV or any other form of doing nothing with an exception of sleeping or snoozing. Why should we waste our time instead of having fun? I feel sorry for people who have no interests at all and tend to spend much time on switching the TV channels.
As for marriage and family life, I am not planning on having one, partially because I have witnessed enough couples struggling to get their shit together. All those everyday problems, quarrels, misunderstandings, etc. I know that that is the whole point of marriage and building healthy relationship -- is to overcome those obstacles and work together on it, which may be and will be hard. Still, I see little worth in all that.
2. Yes, it is helpful. I think information is easier to absorb.
3. Yes, you can see these differences in your life.
4. Very often I get stuck all over the world and think about my projects.
He is phenomenal, he gives information in a funny way that can be envied. A very charismatic character and would love to watch other films from him
Do you think that comedic approach to marriage problems is more helpful then more serious one? Why?
A difficult question, but it seems to me that the comedic approach is more helpful. I think so because if we joke about a problem
it becomes less terrible. It seems to me that I will present marriage problems in the same way as Mark Gungor helps to explain some unresolved issues
Do you agree with his statement about differences in man/woman brain?
Of course, yes, it seems to me that a woman and a man see different things differently.

Empty box :) It sometimes happens to me to look at it and sit for longer what my fiancée does not understand and begins to think black thoughts:) I showed her this movie today and I think she understood what's going on with this magical empty box
I don't know much about his seminars, but the one you presented was fun to watch and interesting. Thank you for sharing. But by the end of the video I didn't hear any solution so it's bit strange for me.
2. Do you think that comedic approach to marriage problems is more helpful then more serious one? Why?
I think comedy helps us to learn stuff that can be a personal problem for us, without stress and resistance. It's important because people on this seminars, not ideal pairs and are looking for solution of their problems.
3. Do you agree with his statement about differences in man/woman brain?
I do. Of course we cannot treat everyone the same, but as average human being I think it's our physiological difference and it's hard to overcome our congenital behavior. I think that it's not a problem and we just need to understand that differences.
4. What do you think about empty box mentioned in film? Did you ever go there?
I did. And its hard to explain that you can literally think nothing to my girlfriend ;)
Quite interesting, nice humor too
2. Do you think that comedic approach to marriage problems is more helpful then more serious one? Why?
Well one can say that a marriage is a comedy itself. Don't marry
3. Do you agree with his statement about differences in man/woman brain?
Its not only about brain differences but whole body too
4. What do you think about empty box mentioned in film? Did you ever go there?
I can only say its a like a slow down time
I definitely liked what you shared. It was very fun and vital. I found Mark Gungor's other seminars and I think he has a great talent for presentation and storytelling. The audience loves him. He tackles the topic so banal in an interesting way, but he discovers new things in it. I am glad that such topics are discussed so freely and with taste.
2. Do you think that the comedic approach to marriage problems is more helpful than a more serious one? Why?
I think Mark Gungor's' comedic approach to marital problems is more helpful than the serious one. This is a very popular topic. People should learn to talk about it because only by talking about it can they find a solution. Thanks to this, you can talk about such a sensitive topic in a funny way. I think that we should approach all human-related matters in such a fun way.
3. Do you agree with his statement about differences in man / woman brain?
Something is wrong :) We can see in the equality of behavior of women and men. I don't know if it depends on brain structure, but definitely the nervous system is different in men and women.
4. What do you think about empty box mentioned in film? Did you ever go there?
Yes, I heard about that. I don't know, I don't think so. I try not to run away from problems in this way.
