Book Review: Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl-A Woman's Guide To Holding Her Own In A Relationship

Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl-A Woman's Guide to Holding Her Own in a Relationship is a valuable resource for people interested in Dating, and it is available through Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.


From Publishers Weekly
Contending that some women are "too nice," comedian and radio show host Sherry Argov has written Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl- A Woman's Guide to Holding Her Own in a Relationship. "I'm not recommending that a woman have an abrasive disposition," Argov writes, "The woman I'm describing is kind yet strong. She doesn't give up her life, and she won't chase a man." Her sassy book is filled with scenarios and advice aimed at making women subtly stronger and self-empowered. Argov's principles, which range from the farfetched to the downright absurd, include "If you give him a feeling of power, he'll want to protect you and he'll want to give you the world" and "A little distance combined with the appearance of self-control makes him nervous that he may be losing you." The book, which has already been featured on The View and The O'Reilly Factor, should make waves with its controversial view of relationships.

Book Description
Do you feel like you are too nice?
Sherry Argov’s Why Men Love Bitches delivers a unique perspective as to why men are attracted to a strong woman who stands up for herself. With saucy detail on every page, this no-nonsense guide reveals why a strong woman is much more desirable than a "yes woman" who routinely sacrifices herself. The author provides compelling answers to the tough questions women often ask:
-Why are men so romantic in the beginning and why do they change?
-Why do men take nice girls for granted?
-Why does a man respect a woman when she stands up for herself?
Full of much-needed advice, hilarious real-life relationship scenarios, "she says/he thinks" tables, and the author’s unique "Attraction Principles," Why Men Love Bitches gives you bottom-line answers. It helps you know who you are, stand your ground, and relate to men on a whole new level. Once you’ve discovered the feisty attitude men find so magnetic, you’ll not only increase the romantic chemistry in the relationship-you’ll gain your man’s love and respect with far less effort.

Some quotes I like in the book:

#1: Sometimes a man deliberately won’t call, just to see how you’ll respond.

2: The biggest variable between a bitch and a woman who is too nice is fear. The bitch shows that she’s not afraid to be without him.

#3: If the choice is between her dignity and having a relationship, the bitch will prioritise her dignity above all.

#4: A man knows which woman will give in to last-min requests.

#5: Whenever a woman requires too many things from a man, he’ll resent it. Let him give what he wants to give freely; then observe who he is.

#6: Before sex, a man isn’t thinking clearly and a woman is thinking clearly. After sex, it reverses. The man is thinking clearly and the woman isn’t.

#7: If he makes you feel insecure, let your insecurity be your guide.

#8: When you appear softer and more feminine, you appeal to his instinct to protect. When you appear more aggressive, you appeal to his instinct to compete (very true!).

#9: Men don’t respond to words, they respond to no contact (but pls don’t do it on purpose to get attention ).

#10: A woman looks more secure in a man’s eyes when he can’t pull her away from her life, because she is content with her life.

#11: When you nag, you become the problem, and he deals with it by tuning you out. But when you don’t nag, he deals with the problem.

#12: You have to show that you won’t accept mistreatment. Then you will keep his respect.
