 2008-11-12 - Beyond the Rules
Argov goes beyond "the Rules" and dispenses some much-needed advice to a lot of women.
There is a fine line between being in the driver's seat and allowing the man to believe that he is. It is not so much a matter of being in control as it is a matter of achieving a workable dynamic between the sexes.
Argov delves into button-pushing and the things men do to test the mettle of women. Staying calm, cool, and collected is highly advisable, including in the board room at the office. Deep down most women know this, yet it can quickly go out the window when it seems that men "just don't get it", are tuning out, or are shutting down altogether as matters reach the meltdown stage.
The author spares nothing as she reveals the tactics of the male player. It is better to cringe your way through this section than to stay uninformed and vulnerable.
Argov's insights are empowering for women. Male players may not appreciate this, but for quality men that want workable relationships with women, it will ultimately benefit both sexes for women to digest and apply these premises.

This works, this works, this works!!!! It does manipulate people, but it makes the guy your dating do what he's supposed to be doing in the first place. In a world where men think they set the rules and have you waiting by the phone, this book is a bright shineing light! You don't have to apply all the books princples in the exact way the author chooses to express them, but these are guildlines, RULES! Stick to them and couple these rules with the famous "He's Just Not That Into You" book, and you'll be running the relationship show in no time! HOLLA
2008-11-02 - Just buy it already
I admit I bought this book because it had a funny title and the reviews said it was worth it. I think for a woman who is confused about men, relationships, the way men act and maybe even herself - this is a prefect read. Its a bit over the top with its generalizations at times, say if you enjoy men who aren't uber-masculine. But I think overall it has some eye opening points.
While reading this book I discovered so many things about myself and at least ten things or you could call them mistakes I was making in the dating scene and always coming off super needy. I didn't even know I was doing it!!
This book is easy to read and matter of fact, its funny, truthful and gets down to the essence of personal power and holding your own in a relationship. Just buy it already, you'll be glad you did.
2008-10-28 - good advice for the already married too
This book contains everything I've had to figure out for myself in 6 years of marriage - I wish I'd had it from day 1. It's not about manipulation and "trickery" to get a man to do things - it is about how to subtly show him with your actions when you are unhappy - or happy - with the way you're being treated, in a way that will get him to respond. It works. I've read other relationship books (Mars/Venus) that suggest you discuss everything, which is a prescription for antagonism and a bad relationship. This book teaches you to communicate with a man in a way that works - by not talking, nagging, or pleading. Get it.
