Customer Reviews
"Venus and Mars" meet "The Rules" as paradox revealed!
Argov reveals the age-old paradox that continues to baffle women the world over: that men prefer women who are at least somewhat aloof. Don't be put off by the title -- Argov's definition of "bitch" is simply a woman who refuses to put her life on hold for a man. Part "Venus and Mars" and part "The Rules", this easy-to-read book is deceptively simple, yet contains excellent insights into mens' perspectives on what makes some women particularly appealing, while others hold little interest.
Argov offers simple strategies to ensure you err on the side of caution, and the techniques and examples are very straightforward. The book would be especially helpful to women who believe that anticipating a man's every need is the road to happiness in a relationship. The odds for success in romance, according to Argov, increase greatly when the woman puts herself first.
An excellent book for women whose relationships may have lost their lustre, and a useful guide for those wondering what part of their behaviour continues to sabotage their happiness in relationships.
Essential - don't leave home without it!
This is the first time i've written a review - that's how much i was impressed by this book! Having been brought up to be a nice girl and always being the one to give her time, efforts & energies - i now realise that putting yourself first isn't selfish - it's essential - the old cliche if you don't value yourself - why should others? rings true.
In the past, i've always been the one to show I care first - make that special effort - but no more - now i'll let myself sit back & enjoy being wooed - without the feeling I don't deserve it.
Truly a life changing book - BUY IT TODAY!!!!
Easy to read and to the point
An easy and very insightful read for anyone wondering why they can't keep a relationship and those that needs to blow of a few cobwebs in their current relationship. I have a single friend who has men falling over themselves to be with her and since reading this book it's become apparent that she has been running these set of rules inadvertently, proof that they do work.
The title is a little deceptive. It's not about being mean and hard it's about being who you are and honouring yourself. That means don't change who you are to please anyone else not just the male of the species. I have tried both ways people pleasing to honouring myself first and foremost. I can tell you that life works a whole lot better using the latter approach. Sherry sets this out as an easy to read set of rules. After the initial read-through it's a great book to keep diving back into if you have a few spare moments and need to remind yourself of some of the rules.
I would throughly recommend this book, but remember this is about honouring yourself and is not a guide on how to be a better doormat.
This book should come with a warning, however, I've made some changes in my marriage since reading the book (with good results I hasten to add) which has now inspired my group of girlfriends to take action in their own relationships, which is leaving a few husbands a little dazed and confused, but trying harder.
