Which sex is stupider? This volume seeks to answer this question, using heavy doses of humor and a multitude of examples. Written by Liz and her husband Roland in order to give both sides of the story, chapters explore the myths of women who cannot operate simple devices, men who bungle simple shopping tasks, women drivers, and men who are clueless about relationships.
For every woman who wants to know what her man is thinking. Internationally syndicated radio superhost and columnist, controversial psycho-therapist, and author of the break-out New York Times bestsellers How Could You Do That?! and Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives, Dr. Laura Schlessinger is back with Ten Stupid Things Men Do to Mess Up Their Lives. In ten vital, compelling chapters, Dr. Laura speaks her mind on: Stupid Chivalry By getting involved with the wrong woman (weak, flaky, damaged, needy, desperate, stupid, untrustworthy, immature, etc.) you think that your love will save/transform her. Stupid Independence Unwilling to admit "need" for bonding and intimacy, you hide in excesses of work, play, drink, drugs, porn, and meaningless sex. Stupid Ambition Unable to comfortably and proudly accept your inherent importance to society and family as husband and father, you bow to the false idols of money, toys, power, and status. Stupid Strength Uncomfortable with feeling weak, vulnerable, useless, powerless, or rejected, you use intimidation, force, or passive-aggressiveness to regain control. Stupid Sex Taking an attraction, opportunity, or erection as a "sign," you measure your masculinity and power by sexual conquests, infidelities, and orgasms. Stupid Matrimony Lacking a mature sense of the purpose, meaning, or value of marriage, you realize too late you've gone down the aisle with the wrong woman for the wrong reasons and feel helpless to "fix it." Stupid Husbanding Thinking that marriage is the honorable discharge from loving courtship, you continue to live as though you were single and your "mommy-wife" will take care of everything else. Stupid Parenting Believing that only women/mothers nurture children, you withdraw from hands-on parenting to assert your masculine importance, missing out on the true "soul food" of a child's hug. Stupid Boyishness Having not yet worked out a comfortable emotional and social understanding with your mother, you form relationships with women that become geared to avenge, resolve, or protect you from your ties to Mommy. Stupid Machismo Understanding the true and meaningful difference between being male and a man, you can become a man.

SAFE SEX...it's not just about using contraception and preventing sexually transmitted infections. In Crazy Stupid Sex, Dr. Barbara Keesling draws on her decades of experience teaching Human Sexuality to discuss the potential perils of many common sexual behaviors. Some of the case studies described in Crazy Stupid Sex are funny, some are embarrassing, some are horrifying, and some are tragic. The book includes sex education material as well as humorous personal anecdotes, historical facts, a cross-cultural perspective on sexual diversity, and a focus on emotional safety. Thinking about having sex? Read this first. You don't have to trade pleasure for safety-you just need to know how to reduce your risks. Have fun, but be careful out there
You Stupid. This could be an offensive title to a book. Bert's mother, Lucille McDade, thought it was. But it is not meant to be that way. It is a humorous and slang way of making a point. In the pages of this book, Bert talks about life, love, religion—all in a way that will have you laughing one minute, possibly crying the next. You will see and feel the joy he felt in life. You will see the influence of his family, his childhood church, and the people in his life in general. He was a Southern boy who grew up in a rural community, and that Southern stamp is all over his words. He lived his life to the fullest, and those that he loved, he loved without reservation. This book provides his unique perspective that guided him his entire life.
