говно конечно сексистское, но забавно

I read the book, tried to apply it. Trust me, it does not work. But it helped me understand when somebody is actually interested in me.

Interesting. Funny. Old-fashioned!!!

the book is definitely wonderful and deserves a closer and a more analytical reading to fully grasp its lessons even though not all of them are applicable in my community. I must say that towards the ending of the book I surely blushed a lot...

It's a goodread nonetheless. It might not be an appropriate read for everyone.

It was supposed to be a joke between a good friend and me.
Every line should be taken with humor. At least the author is funny and gave me a good laugh.

Perfect Read

Read the Chinese translated first, learned a lot by reading the original, definitely gonna share it with others and they are sure to be surprised.

Great book. It opened my eyes to so many things I was doing wrong. I love the pupil control plan that she illustrates in the book. I am differently going to use this when I get back to DC to see who I can catch!

I enjoyed reading the book and the research put into it. I'm not sure how much of the advice is really true. Simply because I'm not sure the overall gender can be shoehorned into a generalized concept.
Some of the book really makes sense especially our childhood influences.
Many portions of the book talk about pretending or deceiving someone by molding yourself into something you're not. How genuine is this? Also I wasn't comfortable reading that you need to have sex with someone to fall in love with you.... The books places a lot of emphasis on good looks and physical appearances, without which it would be hard to fall in love... I'm not convinced entirely but it's an okay book to read in terms of self improvement.

I am currently 80% through this book and it is killing me to go further and had to share my thoughts on this book. Simply, it is terrible and bad advice if you are reading this for the purpose of applying it to find a lover or spouse.

The pros to this book is that there is a lot of research that has been put into citing studies and giving sources. That is about the only pro. The cons would be that I wouldn't really trust the validity of some of the studies mentioned in this book. An example of the latter would be in page 20 where the author cites the work of Dr. John Money and his book "Lovemaps" (whose work was widely known as severely flawed).

I would also go so far as to say that this book is basically a bunch of medical, scientific and psychological studies/theories that have been put together into a book with the author having no real life experience in applying the methods mentioned. An example would be page 51 where the author states, "Leil, you hypocrite. Tomorrow morning you'll be telling women to have the courage to smile at strangers, and you don't even have the nerve to do it yourself."

I will also state that from a man, a majority of information in this book aimed at females about men is just simply inaccurate and based from the authors personal opinion of what she thinks men think. I read portions of this book where I just shook my head and as a result of that I would be skeptical of the advice in this book aimed at men about women as well.

For men I would highly recommend a book by Corey Wayne (ISBN # 978-1-4116-7336-6) as a more practical book on how to better yourself and become more appealing to women.

PS: She also uses ridiculous synonyms throughout the book which I'm seeing as a repetitive trend in her books. She calls your love interest a "quarry" and uses it 498 times in the book. She also calls men "hunters" and women "hunteress". It just gets really old before the book is over.

A very interesting book reminding us about several universal psychological (and not only) truths :)

Sure, it's as manipulative as it sounds, but there's some interesting studies and surveys in there-and reasonable conclusions about human behavior. If you can get to that part, it's great.

This book is good for making people interested in you and to make a good first impression. But this will not help anyone fall in love with YOU, it will make then fall in love with this character you built up, and eventually you will get tired of keeping up this facade in the authentic version of yourself will come through eventually.
