Summary: Must read!
Review: I tip my hat to Ms Argov. Her vignettes and insights are captured with humor and chilling realism. Because I'm a man, I started the book by fighting against its basic premise; yet by the end, I grudgingly capitulated to the inevitable conclusion that - in the long run - men need partners who are their equal.This is a must read for men and women alike who are interested in finding and keeping meaningful long term relationships.

Summary: The roles are reversed!
Review: First of all, thank you to the author, Sherry Argov, for writing a wonderful book. Not only is the advice excellent; the book is so hilarious I kept laughing out loud as I was reading it. I had to call my girlfriends and read them parts of it - and we laughed so hard together we were crying. The author is right on about everything she says, and delivers the message to her readers in a lively, impertinent manner. Truly the best relationship book I've ever read.

Summary: I'm reading it again and again!
Review: I am reading this book again and again. My gosh--to finally have someone sit down and explain it is like--thank you!!!! I never had a mother or a sister to teach me this stuff and now I understand things that confused me. I understand the nonverbal behaviors of men--why they pull back--why I give myself up, what I do that sends the message I am insecure, etc. I believe this relationship book has changed the way I approach relationships permanently. I also understand what attracts a man so much more--I think we think it's all looks or sex. It really is dignity. Most importantly, it felt empowering. I felt good about myself after reading it, and I felt that I have much, much more to bring to my next relationship!

Summary: This Book Is The Real Deal--Truly Phenomenal
Review: As a man, I have to admit, everything this author is saying is absolutely true. I think most men will be hard pressed to disagree--it just hits it right on the mark. Until now, men kept secrets from women and didn't share this stuff with their mate. We, as guys, do have certain ways of getting the upper hand, but to our own detriment. There's nothing sexier then a woman who can keep a guy in check. And truth be told, most men fantacize about a woman who is strong. It's more of a compliment when a guy has a strong woman interested, rather then a desperate woman. It's just funny seeing this stuff in writing with such candor. Kudos to the author, Sherry Argov. This book is really outstanding. It's the real deal.

Summary: She's Absolutely Right!
Review: I bought the book and fitted the very description of the nice girl...not because of naiveness, but just being too damn nice! All of what she said was right on the money. The suggestions of becoming a bitch and making a man want you and him wanting to get to know you and wanting to stick around actually do work. So I would recommend this book with absolute confidence to any "nice" girl!

Summary: Give this to your daughters and nieces
Review: I wish I had read this book 20, no 30, years ago -- but it was not written then. This book is proof that feminism has come a long long way. The book emphasizes self esteem while recognizing the very practical realities of "the dance" in a relationship with a man. Old fashioned in powerfully modern way. Pragmatic information which has application in all aspects of female self-identity and personal strength. I highly recommend this book for any girl or woman who is thinking of getting involved in a relationship. Excellent excellent book.

Summary: Would YOU want to be treated this way?
Review: I was amused and both disgusted by this book. It did NOT work with my boyfriend of 2 yrs...in fact, he picked up immediately that things had subtly changed, and said, "I can see through these games you're playing, so please stop it, because I don't appreciate it." And no, he's never had another girlfriend in his life, so no one else would have treated him like this. My mother had initially let me borrow it after she read it, and she's been happily married over 20 yrs...and she was not thrilled with the overall message of the book. She said, "If you have to play these games with anyone of the opposite gender, you shouldn't be with them." It's true. With the exception of gently reminding people what you've done for them when they pick what you've done apart, most of these techniques just seemed too abusive to me for everyday use. Life isn't a corny teen flick where this stuff works -- if it was, I'd be living in a house worth $800,000, have a hot next door neighbor exactly my age, and my biggest problem would be the next time my nails were going to be done. However, this is not the case -- cut the drama and find some real problems in life to fix.

Summary: Great advice for women of any age
Review: Sherry Argov offers invaluable advice about how to maintain your dignity and self esteem in relationships with men. I wish I had read her book 10 years ago! Simple phrases and ideas like, "Maintain your financial independence," "Men don't respond to words, they respond to no contact" "It is your attitude about yourself that a man will adopt" are fleshed out in a no-nonsense, logical format. It confirmed some of my notions about men. But more important, I learned a lot of information I wish I had known all my life. The "Rules" is enough to get started on, but this book explains exactly why being "too nice" does not work. The book will challenge some of your notions about men, and change the rest of them. I highly recommend it.
