    This review is based on a free copy of this book.I approached this book with eagerness and optimism, thinking it would be similar to an earlier book in this series ("Shit that pisses me off"). I even held this viewpoint at the beginning chapter, thinking that perhaps the improved writing structure and minimal waffling was a positive signpost for chapters to come. How wrong I was.This book would be more aptly called "Qualities of Men that Piss Me Off (and Why Men are Inferior)". The few chapters that held promising ideas (such as "The Freedom to Fail, the Right to Succeed") were wholly squandered by irrational and misandric sweeping statements such as: "Men do not, clearly, consider us (women) equals," and "Men are concerned not only with physical size...but also with the size of their cars, their houses, their corporation," and perhaps the most telling "The male mind is more primitive..."She even went as far as to suggest we should implement a "Gender Responsibility Tax" in which $5000 should be payable by every male, because based on one survey, men littered more than women, and because more men tend to commit crime and occupy prisons. I'm not even going to begin explaining the many ways in which this terribly flawed, hypocritical and unjust policy could be abused by society.The hateful misandric attitudes ruined the book for me. Don't waste your time on it if you're looking for a balanced and reasonable critique on societal issues.
