Summary: a magazine article re-packaged as a slick book
Comment: This slim, shiny volume can slip into the palm of your hand or into your pocket but not on your bookshelf b/c i don't see how you can read it after flipping through it more than once. It has the feel of one of those mini-books you see on display at the local Borders, like The Little Book on Zen. In short, it's a novelty book.
I bought this book because I enjoy the show "Queer Eye on the Straight Guy" and was intrigued to find out that Ted Allen (the Food guy)co-wrote this book. But I was disappointed to learn that it is basically a bunch of pithy aphorism-like setnences that is ALWAYS followed by a cheeky joke or sarcastic comment. While amusing to read in a magazine article format (why, like Esquire!) I was looking for something more substantial a la Queer Eye. Y'know, some tips, some ideas with the overall goal of improving your sex life and getting your mojo back on track.
Instead, it's a multi-font joke book with "advice" like don't wear black socks in bed. Wacka wacka.
Think I'll stick to watching Queer Eye. That seems to do more to help a guy's game than this weak book.
Rating: 5
Summary: very fun read
Comment: This book is fantastically funny with just enough actual, practical advice. Anyone, married or dating, can definitely enjoy learning the Things a Man Should Know about Sex.
Rating: 5
Summary: Fun book to share
Comment: If you want a book on sex ed, this is not it. This book provides witty annecdotes about healthy and fun sex. It's a great book to share with others and laugh outloud. It's mostly about what you already know with a funny twist, and maybe you'll get a few good hints out of it too. I laugh every time I read it, and I've given it as a gift to several friends.
