( )I cannot get off my feminist high horse long enough to express my true opinions about this book, but I will endeavor to remain coherent. It is attempting to pass itself off as a cutsie retro 50s guide to become a whole woman by employing the most inane behaviors imaginable. Complete with day-glo illustrations, it is impossible for this book to not be offensive to anyone with a remaining brain cell. It is likewise impossible to pass off as tongue in cheek humor. It is insulting to both men and women. It should be remaindered immediately and rendered into pulp. Do not waste your time. Slick, magazine type book with Cosmo type advice--clean up, improve your posture, and project sexiness. A whole lot of pages to explain those three things. The authors envision a "typical" woman who they presume who will be reading this book. The interesting and telling point is that they envision her to be reluctant, unwilling, and a feminist. Which obviously codes any woman who does not want to use her sexuality to get ahead as stupid, right? Wrong. This book has a worrisome lack of exploring how to be sexy AND equal. There are plenty of examples of how this "natural" way of communicating and behaving must somehow be unearthed and utilized. The authors send several mixed messages. I wonder if they ever once considered how it is a woman makes the first several moves in any relationship (according to them), yet she is submissive. Overall, a confusing book. The idea of this book was cute, but to be honest I couldn't read it without getting a headache. The pages had a wallpaper-y busy background that was way too hard to filter the words out of. no reviews | add a review

Learn how to be more attractive and self-confident without relying on rhinoplasty, the latest diet du jour, or a different cup size with this seven-day guide on how to attract the best that life has to offer.
Relationship and communication experts Eva Margolies and Stan Jones offer an authoritative primer to help women discover their inner sex appeal by mastering effective gender signals--like the proper way to sit, gaze, and vocally communicate through body language that communicates femininity instead of blatant physicality.
This accessible and easy-to-follow guide features four-color illustrations that perfectly demonstrate key gender signals and instructs readers on how to manipulate the level of sex appeal they wish to convey by turning it off or on, up or down, depending on the image they wish to project.
