Every Man Objectifies Women?
This author claims all men objectify women, so any displays of warmth and sensitivity are just tricks to bed a woman as quickly as possible. Women who think otherwise are dupes. However, he also wants to redeem men, too, but ends up contradicting himself when he does. For example, he says men only write poetry to lure women into bed…but then says the fact that men write poetry prove how sensitive they are. So which is it – is poetry a means to trick women into bed or to express sincere emotions? Another example is claiming men are simple and honest, so their words should be taken at face value. However, he also says they’ll lie to get a woman into bed and are also lying when they say, “I’ll call you.” Despite all this trickery, the author claims men can love, but only after getting sex. So before sex, they’re objectifying women and tricking them into bed without remorse. But after sex, they somehow grow a conscience and are now ready to relate on a human level. Given sex is the key to love, he advises women to (1) dress as slutty as possible, so a man knows she’ll put out and (2) put out as early as possible. The author also gives tips on how to get a good grade in bed. So the higher the grade, the higher his “love”. So does this mean when a man has sex with a prostitute, he falls in love? Prostitutes dress sexy and put out right away. So the movie Pretty Woman was based on reality? This advice is absurd and although the author claims he’s helping women, I got the impression he hates them. For example, he says when men have sex with you, the whole time they're imagining someone else. Even if this were true, how does a woman benefit from knowing this? I got the impression he enjoyed this mental torture. The author also has double standards, too. For example, he thinks Lucy from the show “I Love Lucy” is despicable because she lies and exploits people to get what she wants. Yet he’s fine when men lie and exploit women to get sex. He also says it’s a turn-off when women are workaholics because it means less attention for her man. Yet he’s fine with men being workaholics. I’m not sure why the author wrote this book. Is it to convince women that men are too shallow for deep connection, so they need to objectify themselves like he would? If that's the case, then not only does he not respect women, he doesn’t respect men as well.
