Ten Stupid Things Men Do to Mess up Their Lives Book

Everything will be okay ... once you admit that Dr. Laura's always right. This companion volume to the radio advice factory's 1994 bestseller (which tackled the stupid things women do) serves up plenty of the no-nonsense, old-fashioned morality that her legions of listeners love. Brutally reductive--but not necessarily wrong--this book chalks up men's problems to trying to save "damsels in distress," refusing to admit to a healthy dependence on others, climbing the career ladder to the detriment of your relationships, denying the duty and pleasure of child-rearing, and many others. Whatever your personal reaction to her brassy, unapologetic style, Dr. Schlessinger is a refreshing antidote to the wishy-washy "everything's relative and everyone's different" trend that held sway for a time. Ten Stupid Things Men Do to Mess up Their Lives contains a lot of good advice--even though it has as much in common with instant soup mix as with therapy.Read More

  • Product Description

    Men's stupidity is different from women's, explains Dr. Laura Schlessinger in her latest book. While women tend to obsess and overanalyze every issue in their lives, especially relationships, men take a different tack. They're clueless. Instead of thinking about their actions and the subsequent consequences, they walk around reacting mindlessly to the world at large.

    Fortunately for them, Dr. Laura is just the right person to shake them out of their stupor, and in 10 Stupid Things Men Do to Mess Up Their Lives she does just that. In 10 bracing, no-holds-barred chapters, she grabs men by their ties and speaks her mind on:

    Stupid Machismo -- not recognizing the difference between being a male and being a man

    Stupid Heroism -- saving "damsels in distress" and getting stuck with a loser or a "little girl" who will leave when she grows up

    Stupid Parenting -- thinking that children are "women's work"

    Stupid Matrimony -- getting married? Why? I dunno.

    And six other stupid types of behavior.

    Sometimes scathing, sometimes humorous but always wise, she provides commonsense guidelines to show men how to stop their self-diminishing actions, driving the message home with real-world examples taken from her radio show and private practice. If her opinions seem harsh or stringent, too bad. Dr. Laura isn't here to coddle anyone; she shoots from the hip. Men and the women who love them will be enriched by the honesty and wisdom of her spirited advice.
