Men and women have been keeping company for millions of years, but the question is, what do men REALLY know about the fair sex? This ground-breaking encyclopaedic work by the celebrated gender... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Very funny :). I don't think this "book" is so deep as to try and convey hatred or other negative feelings. It is a joke, and from what I can tell of the reactions I witnessed when showing it around, it is funny to both sexes. As for it being a waste of valuable resources...it can be used for notes. In which case, "What Men Know" will be a bunch of blabber that you jotted down :).
So it won't win the Pulitzer, it's still pretty amusing

I bought this book recently as a gift for an unreconstructed male chauvinist who frowned at me...until he got the joke. I saw this item has been released in many foreign languages such as Italian, Spanish, Gaelic and Yiddish, so I guess men and women are the same all over the world. Which seems to me to be a good thing these days.
You get what you pay for...

The whole point is that it is not really a book ... this is a great marketing idea (c'mon, dont you wish YOU thought of this ... 350,000 copies!). It costs about the same as a greeting card and is meant to either make a point or get a laugh. There was a previous variation on this idea awhile back in the form of "The Wit and Wisdom of Spiro T Agnew" (Nixon's Vice President who resigned after being charged with tax evasion and taking bribes) Confucious say: he who laughs last didn't get joke! Unfortunately for a few, it cost them $4.95 to find out!
A Great Gift for the Groom

I bought this book for my brother and gave it to him at his engagement party. I told him to read the jacket aloud to everyone, and you should have seen his face when he opened it and saw the pages were blank. It was a huge hit. I have since given it to a few more grooms...what a great gift.
Most comphrenhensive book I ever read.<Grin>

The book tells it all of what men know about women. Two seconds after I got done reading it I shook my head and realized where I've been going wrong all these years. A must read for everybody!
