Are you ready to meet the average American male?


专业书评 From Publishers Weekly
The nameless narrator of this dismal debut is a cynical 20-something living an empty, oversexed existence in L.A. He gets laid more often than he masturbates, plays video games, goes to the gym, sizes up every bitch in sight and, understandably, hates Casey, his vapid wannabe-actress girlfriend who tricks him into agreeing to marry her. He is not happy about this. Adding to his reluctance is his burgeoning "relationship" with hottie Alyna, a UCLA student who-just as Casey is an exaggerated caricature of What Men Don't Want-is the Dream Girl who likes video games and porn-style sex. (Also, Casey has a "fat ass" whereas Alyna has a "perfect ass.") [...] Despite the book's purported "brutal honesty," the premise is essentially: guys like sex and dislike cuddling.

"[A] brilliant send-up of the way ...the male point of view has been misrepresented by militant feminists."

Maddox, New York Times bestselling author of THE ALPHABET OF MANLINESS
"[B]uy Chad's book. It's a blueprint of how the mind--and penis--of a typical American male works."

Josh Kilmer-Purcell, New York Times bestselling author of I AM NOT MYSELF THESE DAYS
"It's so primal, so dangerous, it might be the most ingenious book I've ever read."
