Product Description

From the Author

Men Are From Mars, Women Are Out of Their Freakin' Minds
This book will change milions of lives, very possibly for the better, although it's too early to tell. An excerpt will be published in Playboy Magazine in December. Also, I'm fairly sure that the book will be a trade paperback, not a hardcover.

1.0 out of 5 stars A STEAMING LOAD OF FAECALLY-TURGID FILTH !!!, 27 Feb 2005
By A Customer
Christ this book is bad. Not so bad that it's good, just bad in the same way that sandpapering your scrotum shiny and smooth is bad. I'd rather swallow a handful of excrement-covered glass shards and then vomit them up again than read another chapter of this mind-bendingly pitiful tripe. It appears to be conceived by a chimp and written by a 12 year old; perhaps it is just the once-in-a-lifetime cumulative output of a group of mutant bonobos. To put it in simple terms that anyone can understand: I'd rather sit through the whole broadcast of the O.J. Simpson trial than read this asinine drivel cover to cover. AVOID LIKE THE (SOCIAL) PLAGUE IT IS.

P.S. oh yes, and I hear that Baber likes to be dominated by uber-masculine black men...he doesn't mention that in the book, strangely.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for the humor value, 11 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This book is more humorous than it is useful. Those looking for actual useful advice should look elsewhere. However as a light, quick read for the humor, it's good. It's not that the book is wrong; actually many of the tips and experiences are far too real. It just doesn't give any really practical advice on what to do about it all.

3.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a guy's perspective!, 10 Mar 1999
By A Customer
I'm so sick of those dating books written by women, telling us guys how we should approach them, what to say, what not to say, etc. Hey, the women don't really know what's going on in the male psyche! If they only knew the hell of rejection! They just sit back and sift through the offers. We have to do all of the initial work, and that means relying on our instincts and breaking "the rules" to make an impression. Its good to get a male perspective, but this book was a little too casual and silly for me. I wish it would have been a little more honest. There are some other issues--the primal issues--that men struggle with, ie. money and status, our self-esteem, a woman's looks, our sexual needs, which significantly affect the dating process and aren't taken seriously enough here. It was a fun read though.
