Much has been written about relationships, mostly by women, for women. A great deal of it has been agonizing about... men, how to understand them, and how to extract cooperation from them. This is puzzling, since men are, mostly simple, uncomplicated creatures. We are, really. Most men, on the other hand, understand clearly that it's far more fun simply enjoying women than trying to understand them - that is, when permitted to do so.

Herewith then, an attempt at providing a manual, or at worst a collection of instructions on how to pleasurably survive our fairer companions under a plethora of varying circumstances. Having read this book, men will understand exactly how to sail the sea of female emotions at full sail with the wind at their backs, beer in hand. Hopefully, they will become acquainted with a basic set of protocols that will facilitate such fun - and failing that, at least a modicum of sustainable peace.

The book was written, ostensibly for male consumption. Do not be surprised, however, to find your lady, closeted away with her own copy, giggling away uncontrollably (and sheepishly) at the familiarity of the contents.

By the gift of this book upon a Birthday, Christmas, Valentine's or Father's Day to the man in any lady's life, she reveals herself to not only be of enduring humour, but a darn good sport to boot. This would be especially appropriate if either were, for one or other reason, intent on harmonious relationships with their opposite half.
