This book states the obvious. It only reinforces what the average intellagent person already knows. Furthermore, it bashes bisexuals. I’m bi and took offense.
Rating: 1 / 5
This book is not insightful, not really funny, and sometimes (rarely, fortunately) author gets a little annoying. But overall, good, right, has some useful information and clues for almost anyone.

Since this is written by a woman, she says it’s ok for girls to ask guys out. Since reading The Rules I just don’t think this is true. Men love a challenge and if womn pursue them they will lose interest. I don’t agree that hard to get always equals hard to please. The author does differentiate between some behaviors and expectations, at at times made me laugh, other times tough love. I found the confidence discussion, body language, and writing about yourself and what you want useful. . but one shouldn’t be agaist personals and online dating as long as you meet soon and safely (in public). This book covered everything you can think about when it comes to dating, but there’s a lot of common sense.

If you are a guy this book will not tell you anything that will give you an edge over other guys. If scoring on a date is what you have in mind, find a book writen by a guy for guys. No educated professional woman is going tell you how to suduce other women. If you are one of those modern nice guys, buy this book. Wait for a woman to ask you out on a date, then pay all the expenses for the date and go home alone.

Hey!, my wife left me 2 years ago, I’ve been through therapy and taking prozac, my therapist says it’s ok to date women, even If I’m still married, but Dr. Joyce says you MUST NOT???, come on!, she has no clue about my life and my feelings, she has no right to come and tell me good from evil, bad from wrong, she’s not my mother!. Besides that, I like her advice on the reason for approaching someone, get in mind all you want is to get to know the person and see if you both get along, don’t think further than that objective. Some useful tips, but some seem too needy and nice for a guy!, the moment you let a woman know you are interested, the moment she losts interest in you!, I’ve experience on that, believe me.
