The Man's No Nonsense Guide to Women: How to Succeed in Romance on Planet Earth

This really lays out today's female human in simple and easy to understand terms. Looking back, I can relate to what Marc is saying. His basic tenant is that you figure her out early and if she displays certian behaviors up front, cut your losses NOW. I know she's cute and sexy and it's hard to resist her feminine charm. You may have already slept with her and she was a fantastic lover, but get over it before it's too late. Marc's point is to help you decipher certian traits that are a likely sign of things to come down the road, leading to divorce and you losing half your net-worth. Even worse, having to pay child support for the next 18 years. BE AWARE GENTLEMEN! The only thing about his self-preservation strategy is that it seems to limit the available field of potential candidates even more than it already is. I mean once you follow his "no-nonsense" advice there are very few decent women left. He would say, "don't settle and don't accept the abuse". But most of the women out there seem to have the negative traits he says to run from. I've met them with all the hang-ups and mindsets and few of the virtues. My mistake in the past was hanging-on too long, thinking it will work out. I saw all the signs and wanted to ignore them. Eventually, BAM! - right upside my head. What is "no-nonsense" about this book is to not waste time hoping she'll end up being OK or changing. "Hope is not a strategy". Go to Marc's website and check out what this brave man is doing in the media to defy the agenda of the Feminist 2.0 double standard. He's an articulate and "no-nonsense" debator who loves and respects women, while unmasking their version of equality.

Marc's book is indeed simple, straight-forward and no-nonsense. He reveals and explains the simple truths and consequences of our relationship drives and choices. Obviously having learned from his own experience, Mark is emerging as a leader in respectful dialogue with, and about, women. This is the kind of book that signals the stirrings of long overdue change; a wake up call that rips right through the core of our society's long held, contradictory, mutually exclusive and dysfunctional beliefs about what a man "should" be (often as dictated by "entitled" women - as he explains), and offers us the awareness that we have the option to not play along. Against the backdrop of that option, we can be much choosier about whom we decide to be with, what we will and will not tolerate from women (and ourselves), and how to protect ourselves from emotional pain, financial ruin and legal nightmares. Ultimately it is a book about respecting women, by being man enough to have the balls to respect ourselves.

This book would be great required reading for men, and women as well. Men, this is a great book for you because the woman you want, (as described on page 32), likes and respects men. Marc Rudov's writing is honest and direct. Men deserve and women say they want a level playing field. Marc puts it in plain English what that really means. None of us should settle for less. Take pages 133 & 134 to heart. Personally, I have never seen two pages of more sound advice on the topic of what men should seek. Women, just change the gender and it works the same for us. A quote from the back cover... "Finally, a usable book for men that gives a sensible roadmap to women. It solves age-old conflicts with real, modern, equitable solutions." _Romanus Wolter, author, host of The Kickstart Guy radio show.

The essense of this insightful book is based on the premise that if you don't quickly size up the type of woman you're dealing with, then you are doomed to deal with a LOT of frustration, anquish and wasted time, money and effort. His "in your face approach" is a refreshing change from the normal relationship psychobabble crap that is currently making the rounds.

Rudov's no-nonsense how guide to choosing a lover is the only way nowadays for men. The heartbreak of failed relationships notwithstanding, the financial consequences of divorce can be ruinous for men. In today's feminist dominated culture men need to distinguish between a woman's genuine offer of love and mere cold hearted, seductive manipulations for an ulterior motive. For example, getting a child with an eye to quickly ditch the father and bleed him financially dry with child support. As a psychiatrist, I attribute women behaviorial problems with love to early childhood developmental neurophysiological defects. We all know unaffectionately handled puppies, kittens and infant primates have problems successfully mating, and caring for their young. Such would be all the more true for humans. Suspect today's largely day care raised from infancy children of today's working women fail to fully develop of the neurophysiological structures responsible for deep emotional attachment, and loving empathy. It's one thing for day care raised children to meet age appropriate cognitive, developmental milestones, e.g. reading, but quite another to eventually possess the rich emotional skills required for a stable marriage with children. Women may be more adversely affected rendering them much able to experience and effectively share real love with a partner. For today's men Rudov's book is a MUST read.
