"Why men love bitches"

So a friend of mine recommended I read this book, it supposedly changed her life and her outlook on dating.

Just wondering if anyone has read this book? Good/bad, worth the read?

Well, from what i have read of it (the title >< ) ...I wasnt a big fan.

Dude, it's great. I loved it. It's funny, and totally makes sense. I read it quite a few years ago, my mom had reccomended it.

It's basically another take on "He's just not that into you." Mainly, do not act like a door-mat and you will not be treated like one. I liked it.

I read it, i liked it, it was very informative and funny. A 'bitch' isnt literally a bitch, she just means a confident woman that won't let a man take advantage of her.

That's better than "men are from mars " stuff.

i read it and liked it, it was very humorous.

Try it.

It depends on you to be honest because everyone is different. Once I suggested a book called ' fat bitch or skinny bitch' to a friend. I can't remember exactly, but believe that's the name. Anyhow, I suggested it to a friend who'd also just had a baby. It was basically humor infused with serious reasons to lose your baby weight within the first year. I enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the book your friend suggested. It's basically the same type of thing with the book your friend suggested. Truth infused with humor,imho. I think you'll find humor in it if you aren't uptight. Lol Or... should say if you're openminded. :)

My friend hated the book and tried to play it off as an insult towards women/her. She wasn't even slightly amused. I don't think she actually read the book. Some people just like to whine dramatically about titles ect.

The book isn't actually saying be a hateful bitch. Bitch is just a catchphrase they use to decribe a strong confident woman,imho. I realize that isn't always the case, Lol. 

 Try the library if you aren't sure if it's worth the purchase/time. Or borrow it from your friend if they own it.

  <3 That's a wonderful book. It's basically an assortment of questions women ask that are actually red flags meaning ..."He's just not that into you." It's simplifying the whole thing for women. Why would you want to be with someone that just isn't that into you?!  It's basically saying you're allowing yourself to be someones door-mat. That women make excuses instead of hearing the truth. He's treating you like a door-mat because... he's just not that into you.

They have a movie coming out soon based on that book. I saw a trailer for it recently and it looked entertaining. Just a heads up incase that's something any of you would want to go see.

Well I hope so because "Men love bitches" sort of sounds like a female equivalent of those guys who say "All women just want jerks who treat them like crap!" Actually I do know a few women who act like the female equivalent of this, but I think for both sexes, no one short of a few hardcore masochists is actually looking to get treated poorly. And even masochists have their scenarios and safewords.

Yup, in the end when she cheats on you, calls you balding loser repeatedly, takes your money, and throws scalding hot water on your genitals, and then leaves you, you won't want a bitch no more.

hee hee for 'scolding'

 

OH my gosh!! loveddd ittt! read it... twice... you'd want to.. i swear its an amazing book... it just shows impowerment of women.. because really every bad guy wants a good girl... and if he doesn't want you... then you'd know immeditaly and wont waste your time...

okay like i know this one girl who dated this guy for a while and followed the rules of the book and then he kept calling her and calling her...

then she dated someone else [because she didn't like the guy] and decided to get caught up... and he ended up ditching her.. [smh] and all we could do was talk about what would have happened if she tried something from the book... I am sorry it may be self help or whatever.. but that book was absolutly amazing... .. i might read it again

darn, i thought this was going to be a thread about doggies & the men who love them!!!!

I saw a dog hoodie at the pet-store. It was black with bold red writing on the back...it said "I LOVE BITCHES"....I really thought of getting it for my male shih-tzu.....

Genius!

I think this works both ways, I don't know many women who like/respect a man who is a complete push over, I know I don't I like a guy who isn't scared to tell me that I've stepped over the line.

I don't do every single rule in the book. I already snagged my guy but occasionally when he acts like a jerk i go back to my book and do some of the rules, like not calling, ignoring him, etc. and it works and he's calling me like crazy again. But i dont remember every single rule so i just keep it there for when i need it, its great! It's the best if you're dating diff. guys, etc.

The rule book seems like more a conditioning manipulation manuel now. LOL I guess those pickup artist guys are not the only ones manipulating the other sex.

 Yeah. Dating sucks and blows. It's a big friggin' manipulation game. Both ways. Actually, after I read two or three books, when I met my husband I knew I really liked him...so I just told him what I wanted and did not want. I did not play games and pretend I was someone else. He had the choice to walk away or stay. Apparently that worked. We have been married a year and a half now. So there about not believing those books and their advice. Do NOT become a doormat....you will have permanent footprints on your face, and you will probably be alone, or with a real creepy loser.

I'm writing the sequel - "Why Bitches Think Men Love Them"
