How is this acceptable?, 18 Feb 2008

When did we women create an atmosphere where it's okay, nay encouraged, to denigrate men for fun and profit? If a couple of guys wrote a book on keeping score on their wives, and encourage their male readers to kick their own wives out of the house if the women are not performing, those authors would be tarred and feathered faster than you can say 'misandry'. Men are no more animals to be trained to do tricks than women are property to be bought and sold. Kicking our partners down does not raise ourselves up; it does the opposite. "Fixing" a man? Is your husband no more to you than a wobbly chair you'd like to exile to the attic? Books like this encourage us to blot out the humanity of the other gender, and in the process, degrades our own.

Mediocre at best, 15 May 2008

I was sort of disappointed when I got this book and began reading it. It wasn't really what I had expected, but looking back, I can't remember what exactly I was expecting.
The book is basically about two women who developed this "scorecard" to get their lives and husbands in line. Both came from pretty different scenarios and the content of the book is mostly about their specific situations and what they did to change them. I guess I was looking for more of a generic guideline. The book does provide some worksheets for you to work through your own things, but it follows the format they created.
I never did finish the book. I'm not sure I would recommend to buy it - I'll sell you mine; it's still brand new.

I came upon this book at a garage sale and thought i'd try it out since i knew of one of the authors. I was pretty disapointed. as other reviewers have already stated, if a man wrote a book like this, he'd be labeled a pig. save your money, which is only about $2 judging by the listed pricing but you are better off with a king sized candy bar.
