Summary: Outstanding
Comment: I only heard her show once, and was not impressed at all. But this book is quite excellent if you are trying to sort out your life, or what you may be going through or did go through. While I didn't find all the chapters worth reading, the ones I did like were very insightful, essentially doing mini case studies on what has happened with her callers, by relating their stories.
The first chapter, Stupid Chivalry, explores how guys who are "too nice" to women may be denying their real needs and therefore not being real. This backfires for the "nice" guy, but results in a dupe being available to be used by a woman who wants things done for her. Women want men who are real as mates. The chapter also explores guyus being nice because they may feel that their hand is so weak, that they welcome someone who has a lot of troubles so that they won't have to worry about being abandoned. They will feel needed. But unlikely is the case that they will be wanted for more than solving problems of the troubled woman.
The 6th chapter, Stupid Matrimony, explores idiotic motivations for getting married. "She's cute!" is one of them. With so many marriages ending in divorce, it is obvious that people do not always have the resources to think through what is drawing them towards marriage in a practical way. This book is an excellent eye-opener. Just because someone is wonderful to have fun with does not mean that you can overlook their flaws and get away with it. The message of this book, through the histories of her listeners is you will not get away with it. Having someone you can rely on and work with is very important. And making excuses for a woman's current behavior, if it isn't good for a relationship, won't make that behavior go away in the future.
In short, those two chapters were so good in helping me analyze my life that I picked up a copy of the book for a friend who has done some of the stupid things. This book is about seeing stupid things we can do as stupid, rather than just feeling our way through and thinking things will magically work out, and that we will be appreciate, or that the woman will behave better.
If you are trying to sort things out in you life, relative to women, this book should help you see a lot more clearly. And I say that having read many books on related areas.
Good luck.

Summary: Thought provoking and very well written: a page turner!
Comment: This is the first Dr. Laura book that I have read. It is amazing. As a college-aged guy, this book could not have come at a better time. Her book opened my eyes to why I, and other guys, act the way that they do.
Also, I would disagree that this book has a negative tone toward guys, and views males in helpless or pathetic. The pages in the book have the best advice that I could have received. If you are considering buying this book, do it! Your life might change for the better.

Summary: CAN YOU HANDLE THE TRUTH?
Comment: (1) This book can positively change your life, as it has mine.
(2) The fact that this book, and Dr. Laura in general, continues to attract the never-ending, hateful mean-spiritedness of the atheistic, humanistic, close-minded, left-wing socialist liberals in this country should tell any truly educated, thinking person that Dr. Laura is hitting on hard-to-swallow truth.
(3) If you're close-minded, don't read this book. If you're not afraid of the truth, read this book.
