Ten Stupid Things Men Do to Mess Up Their Lives
Shows men how to think through their decisions, restrain their macho impulses, and marry for the right reasons.
Following the tremendous success of her New York Times bestsellers, Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives and How Could You Do That?!, Dr. Laura Schlessinger, the conscience of talk radio, now addresses the stupid things men do that diminish their lives and happiness.
With real-world examples from her radio show and strikingly honest letters from her male listeners, her book reveals that many men demonstrate a level of sensitivity and insight that will surprise most women. Dr. Laura provides commonsense guidelines to show men how to appreciate their own nature and needs. Humorous and wise, she urges men to:
-Stop trying to save or transform needy women
-Recognize and enjoy the need for intimacy
-Avoid blind ambition, which focuses on externals
-Realize their need for control
-Stop measuring their masculinity with sex
-Marry for all the right reasons
-Resolve emotional issues with their mothers
-Take pleasure in raising their children
-Understand the difference between being male and a man
-Be a loving mate
Men and the women who love them will be enriched by the compassion and wisdom of Dr. Laura's spirited perspective. Her growing audience will never look at their relationships, behaviors, and decisions the same way after listening to Ten Stupid Things Men Do to Mess Up Their Lives.
