Description

From the minds that brought you The Official Politically Correct Dictionary and Handbook, comes a wickedly funny send-up of the most dangerous trend ever to strike love, romance, and relationships-sexual correctness. In the be-sensitive-or-else era, everyone needs a guide to the essential don'ts and don'ts of sexual behavior and courtship. If a man compliments his date on her dress, should she go to the police? If a businesswoman licks her lips during a meeting, should she be fired without show more pay? Is a girlfriend just another unpaid sex worker? The answers to these and other harassing questions can be found in this indispensable guide that ensures you are equipped with the proper terminology to impress the right-minded and stay out of jail-or bed. show less

If "Finnegans Wake" was my heavy bathroom reading, this was my light. I almost tossed it when I had to move, but how could i lose a book which started with "Romance . . . is rape embellished with meaningful looks" (a quote from Andrea Dworkin, whose best known work i tried without success to get translated into Japanese for she is an excellent writer even if hate for all men is sick) and taught me about Uncumber's Day (a woman who made herself ugly to avoid marrying a King -- the same, by the way, is found in Chinese history). Call it satire if you want, but this book is the single best criticism I know of the excesses of feminism, and inditement of the victimization of the male, mostly in the USA. (I hate to say it, but I would bet show more that had any woman published half the books I did over the past three years, chances are she would have received much, much more attention than I have.) show less
