Product Description

Designed to help women ages 18-35 catch a life, not a husband, with chapters such as Nevermind a Penis, Well Take a Paycheck. Like The Rules, its based on wisdom the author received from her grandmotherexcept her grandmother was a feisty, gin-drinking feminist. The book covers the gamut of a womans worldrelationships, money, self-esteem, sexual harassment in the workplace, and the guilt of ordering french fries. Gilmans is a sage, insightful, and witty voice in a confusing time that will make women laugh while teaching them to feel entitled, confident, and empowered.

If you have any religion, are Married to a man or in any way conservitive you will find this book insulting. Its one thing to have an opinion and greacefully get the point across its another to beat the reader over the head with profanities if God forbid you have a diffrent opinion. 40 pages into the book and I could believe I wasted my money. She puts people into groups and you are either one of us or one of them. And if you are one of them she basicly tells you to burn in hell. So like I said before if you are without Any and all religion libreal and gay buy the book and enjoy. Otherwise skip it.

Honestly, I feel that if you dislike this book, then you're anti-woman. It's a fantastic, hysterical foray into life as a woman. Every girl should read this book. That's all that needs to be said.

Every sentence Gilman writes is just another clarification of her prejudices, bigotry and narrow-mindedness. Her understanding of men is nil, to be expected from someone who seems to have learnt everything she knows about them from books. Truly, few men I know fit into her neat categories. Anyone whose intellect is low enough to gain something from this drivel deserves to be misled away on the path to unhappiness. The tragedy is that many young women fall for this garbage, only to reject it too late when they're a single thirty-something, flocking desperately around men at discos in the hope of getting what they tried to reject for so long. Once they've given this up, they'll spend the rest of their lives whining about how there are no good men anymore. A wake-up call for you, Gilman. Spiritual growth is no respecter of the hypocrisy of your brand of feminism, and all who take this bilge seriously are merely stunting their own spiritual evolution, as well as guaranteeing their future unhappiness. The current second-hand selling price of 1 cent for your book is still too high, but is an accurate, free-market reflection of its quality. With so many people still struggling to offload their mistaken purchases for a single cent, I would strongly urge Amazon to consider introducing 'negative pricing' to help them out, as well as negative star rating possibilities so as not to be forced to overrate books such as this one, where even a single star is undeserved. However, so long as it remains cheaper than toilet paper, this book may still serve a function.
