 Nothing Gets Me Hot Like Laundry April 17, 2008
3 out of 16 found this review helpful
Well, based on what this book and its publishers would have you believe, that's the inarguable truth.
This reeks strongly of an incredibly weak attempt to subvert the 50's books on how to be a "good wife" by intimating that all women TRULY want in our lives is a fella that will pull his own weight, gosh darn it!
... Which: no. Not only is it insulting to the entirety of the female population by its unfaltering insistence that we have more interest in a clean house than getting laid (no, dear man, that's your fantasy, not mine), but it's equally insulting in its insinuation that men have not moved into a societal place where these tasks are commonplace.
I have a sneaking suspicion these "women" should get out more into the world, and stop messing up my search terms. If I wanted garbage, I wouldn't have keyed in "porn."

What a great idea! You bet watching men being attentive, caring and focused on ME is sexy. And you know what? Why shouldn't men be doing that stuff for us? This isn't a about women's equality (as some reviewers have complained), but instead it's about women being treated as if we are important in a relationship! Women don't always have to be the "nurturers!" If only all men could see this book before they start dating. I'll be buying it for my sisters and friends! Too bad it is a fantasy! :)
The funniest humor has a kernel of truth March 1, 2008

Freud wanted to know what women really want and this book plays up on what us women know is true--that an attractive, attentive man is sexy. And like true pornography, this is an idealized version of men. We don't expect them to be just like this, but if they got close, we'd be ecstatic. The situations and captions are funny. An amusing, harmless gift that will have your girlfriends chuckling.You can send a friend a postcard by going to wannasnuggle.com
Funny for women. Tough on guys February 29, 2008

I bought this for my wife on Valentine's day. She enjoyed it and decided she will give it to her girlfriends.
To other reviewers writing this book is insulting to women, I would say that this book is rather a blow to guys like myself, as it illustrates how self-oriented and shortsighted they are. This book just express the expectations of woman, rather than ours. It's a way to tell us: open yours eyes and think about her before your own little pleasure. Difficult for us to admit but refreshing to read for women.
I wished this book had had a few pages to explain the result of the study on women's expectations and issues with guys. Thus 1 star off.
I love a clean house and a sense of humor! February 24, 2008

I purchased this book for myself and sent another copy to a group of female co-workers for Valentine's Day. We all love this book. The models are handsome, without being 'beefcake' and the captions are very funny. Of course, we are all strong and smart enough to appreciate the humor of this book without feeling degraded.
I find it hard to believe that customers would purchase this book and not get the joke. I mean, come on...there's a barefoot male model vacuuming on the cover! Were you really expecting porn? Or better yet, something cerebral? It's a cute little $10 book meant to give you a laugh. Get over yourselves, people....
