Rating: Summary: INDISPENSABLE Review:
This book is all-important. It's aimed at young men, high school and up, bringing them updated ideas and very positive information about coming of age and dealing with dating, love, sex and romantic relationships. Mortensen distills the hard-won lessons of a lot of tough experiences in this book, and yet speaks to the young reader not with the cold, detached, (and boring) voice of authority, but instead with a lot of integrity and compassion, been-through-this knowledge, and also relentless, wickedly-funny, teenage-angst-dissolving comedy. The book sends the convincing and powerful message that young men who successfully manage and cultivate their own growth become adult men who relate to women with ease, treat women with the respect and integrity they deserve, and enjoy the most enriching love relationships.Speaking to the reader peer-to-peer, Mortensen shares the information that young guys desperately need to begin to make their journey through a new and baffling world of romantic relationships: a challenge which confronts them with no warning. This information will SPARE a lot of young men the humiliation, confusion, and general feeling of incompetence that so many of us experienced, and yet endured in embarassment and isolation. I think this book is an invaluable resource for turning the tables on this disabling state of affairs, and for helping young men with the critical process of becoming healthy, confident, and loving adults. This unique book is un-doing the gag on this crucial subject. Its message --- that through the course of adolescence young men can learn to appreciate and respect themselves and others *as they are*, instead of learning to fear and persecute themselves and the women in their lives --- is VITAL. Mortensen's book is a revolution just aching to happen.
Rating: Summary: Much Better in Bed! Review: A New Ladies' Man is a great book! I made my boyfriend read the part about sex and at first he was hesitant to adopt the techniques but then he got into it and now he is much better in bed. I have been trying to tell him that stuff for the past three years but maybe it is just different hearing it from a guy's point of view. If you are a woman who is consistently unsatisfied (i.e. not having orgasms when you have sex) with your boyfriend then you should pick up a copy of this book for your man!

Rating: Summary: Two Thumbs Up! Review: After finishing "A New Ladies Man," I must say that I admire Colin Mortensen's ambition to not only write, but to offer guidance to young men. God knows, as a woman myself, we all want A New Ladies? Man in our life. His book was right on the money! Part of me wishes this book could have come earlier, as there have been many times when I needed to know that I was short-changing myself by being with a guy who was obviously A New Ladies? Man reject. This book helps girls, including me, to know the way a woman should be treated--with respect. "A New Ladies Man" gets this message across extremely well.
Rating: Summary: Love Ya Colin!! Review: An absorbing book....Thought-provoking. Those who were enthralled by the power described in Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus will be even more so when they read this book. I would love to see Mr. Mortensen on the talk show circuit (on The View and the talk show that Danny Partridge hosts for starters) to promote this gem. If nothing else, I hope he will consider making book store appearances to sign copies for his adoring fans. I am going back to re-read this book a 3rd time. It's THAT GOOD. HI COLIN!
Rating: Summary: A book for EVERY guy! Review: Being a young, single mother means that I, unfortunately, am thrown into the dating world. All that I have come across are insensitive men that have no idea how to treat women! After purchasing this book and reading it cover to cover the day I got it, I must say that Colin Mortensen must have been a woman in a previous life. He surely knows how to treat a women with love and respect...hopefully the men of this world will wake up and get this book. To the men ~ this book will help you become the man that every woman desires. To the women ~ read this book so that you know to never settle for anyone that is not "A New Ladies Man"! I enjoyed every minute of the book and will save it for my son...unless Colin comes out with a newer version in 15 years!
Rating: Summary: Thank you Colin thank you! Review: Great book, especially Colin's chapter about learning to stop masturbating compulsively. It's an embarrassing affliction that very few men are willing to discuss, and I appreciate Colin's willingness to talk about how he overcame his problem (and mine, I admit!). Colin-- it's SO true that we should love ourselves and not hurt ourselves. Enjoyed the chapter on grooming, too, particularly Colin's tips on dealing with huge facial moles. You were right, Colin-- a little bit of linseed oil each morning really does keep those weird long hairs from sprouting! Kudos to you!

Rating: Summary: Hook a sista up! Review: I am a 25-year-old female who recently read A New Ladies' Man and I have to commend the author for being so right on concerning what a woman wants. I'm very impressed with how accurate Colin is, especially in the sex section. I think ALL men can learn something from this book. I gave it to my boyfriend and he laughed his butt off through the whole thing. I can't believe he actually read something! He hasn't read anything besides the sports page since college. I've even ordered another copy for my 16-year-old brother who is undoubtedly clueless. I highly recommend this book to everyone. Just one thing....what's up with the Kamokolinsutra? Colin needs to hook a sista up in the sequel!
Rating: Summary: How can you not love this book? Review: I am an 18-year-old female and recently my friend asked me what I wanted for my birthday. I told him none other then the infamous A New Ladies' Man, and today it was waiting for me in my locker. I read it during my whole day at school and finished it when I got home. I couldn't put it down. My friends were laughing at me all day because every time they saw me, my face was buried in A New Ladies' Man. I decided not to eat lunch but instead to continue reading the book. One of my teachers looked at it and I prayed to god that he wouldn't come across a bad page, not saying the book is bad, but a page that could've gotten my butt in trouble (lol). Kelly, a friend of mine looked at it and told me that her boyfriend really needs to read this book, so I told her to buy it as soon as possible. Many of the things that Colin talks about also apply to girls and I highly enjoyed recommend this book to any girls who are considering purchasing A New Ladies' Man. This was the best birthday present I have ever received. I just hate the fact that I read it all already because Colin's writing is awesome and I spoiled the fun by reading it so fast. I just want to thank Colin for coming out with such a good book, and commend him on not changing his writing style; young guys and girls are really gonna relate to this book. I was cracking up during class when it was dead silent and people were looking at me like I was crazy. I didn't care, this book was funny, and I was going to laugh. I wish there was a book out there dedicated to females that has the seriousness and humor of A New Ladies' Man. Who knows, maybe he can write A New Man's Woman and let us know how to get the guy?
