Is Your Straight Man Gay Enough?: The Ultimate Renovation Guide Tips from a Girl in Distress and Her Gay Best Friend

If Queer Eye for the Straight Guy has taught us anything, it's that women everywhere want their men to be a little more gay. Alas, the fab five can't knock down every man's door, and most women fear... This description may be from another edition of this product.

What makes a straight man 'gay'?

What makes a straight man 'gay'? There's room for improvement, many a gal will admit, if a straight man can belch the national anthem, won't go to a mall unless a food court allowance is provided, and thinks $15. 00 is outrageous for a haircut. From shoes and shopping to the pros and cons of having a man in a particular profession, Is Your Straight Man Gay Enough?: The Ultimate Renovation Guide doesn't require being gay to appreciate.

More fabulous than Prada!

Anyone who takes this seriously as a makeover regimen is missing the point, and all the fun. This book does great good in the world simply by being exceptionally well-observed, brightly written, and hilarious. (The rundowns of straight-guy types and gay-guy types are miniature masterpieces.) Which is not to overlook the tons of helpful information, often arranged in easy-to-use charts and bulleted lists. (The "Shades of Gay" tables sprinkled throughout the book are more miniature masterpieces -- "Way Too Straight: lap dances; Just Gay Enough: laptops; Straight Man at Risk: lap dogs.") Shipley and Anthony are knowledgeable, blunt-yet-cheerful guides into the morass of style and social graces, and they deftly walk the line between constructive criticism and ... criticism (usually). I get the sense this book has been overshadowed by the "Queer Eye" juggernaut, which is a shame. It's really a different beast altogether, one that far more people should know about.

Absolutely Hilarious

This book is laugh out loud funny, and like the other reviewer below me said, every page is funny. I will also buy this as a gift--I'm not much of a book gift giver--there's no accounting for taste--but this one is so universally hilarious, I have a list of at least 5 people I plan to buy it for. Whether or not your straight man is gay enough--hell, I'm not gay enough with my fashion and decorating sense--doesn't matter. It stands on it's own as a funny funny book. Get it!

This book will change my life!

I knew as we headed into winter that my husband had finally reached a critical phase in our relationship. He said to me - "I think that plaid flannel shirts are out of style - I have not seen anyone else wearing them". My heart skipped a beat and I replied calmly - "I believe you are right". Now that this breakthrough has been made - where can I go for help?? The answer is - this book! I have already successfully sent him to a salon for a new hairstyle and I am working on some other suggestions. My only problem is - as Nan did - I live in NJ and GBF's are not that easy to find - after all they are only slightly "different" . Should I seek assisstance in NYC?? Thanks for this book!

Like the gay best friend I never had. . .

A friend of mine got this book for me as a gift and I have to say, I have no idea what the last reviewer is talking about. The book is FUNNY! It's not real! It's not supposed to be taken seriously (with tips like "use a weed whacker to get rid of unwanted back hair"  and "sign your man up for weekend play dates with other husbands",  let's hope not!) I laughed on every page of this book. Every woman will see boyfriends past and present here, from the guy obsessed with his "entertainment console" to the guy who thinks WD-40 is a great gift. And I love the ways the book shows women how to get their gay best friend (or "GBF") in on the plan. I don't have a gay best friend, but after reading this book, I know what I've been missing!
