Editor's Notes and Comments:

Brief Book Summary:
The newly favored man is not really a man at all, but a hairless, effeminate, germ-fearing, non-meat-eating, exfoliating, wristband-wearing woman of the worst order. We as men are told that we must embrace the sacred feminine in ourselves, even if it doesn't actually exist, and become the very quintessence of woman, plus penises. This situation is untenable. This trend must stop.

Be A Man

Some hard-and-fast rules from Man: The Book

If something happens to the pilot, you must land the plane.

If you're tweezing your eyebrows, you might as well go ahead and wax your labia too.

If a sandwich anywhere costs more than a steak at Outback, do not purchase it.

A sister's cleavage is always fair game, unless it is your own sister.

If it gets you into bed with a girl, it isn't a lie.

Since 1997 is over, no more tribal band tattoos allowed. Period.

Men who aren't diehard fans of at least one NFL team should be looked upon with scorn and suspicion.

Stop being a wuss and read--no, memorize this book.



Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - If your a man, you must read
This is the ultimate guide to return us men to our rightful place as men. Clay Travis and the deadly hippos have created us a rulebook that if followed would make "men" men again.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - There are ONLY two types of men
The Deadly Hippos present a humour laden look into expected stereotyped essence of being a man. There's 975 entries on what it takes or doesn't take to be a man broken into categories of Bar/Restaurants, Women, Manicants, Sports, and everything else. Man: The Book is completely sarcastic but you know you will be using many of these lines with your buddies. This covers everything from picking up women, sexual exploits, mocking other men for not ordering the hottest items from a menu or throwing like a girl, wasting beer, there are two and only two classes of men (hetero and not, there is no such thing as metro and you're just fooling yourself if you think there is), nickname using, and for the love of all that is holy - never owning a cat (unless you can put a football helmet on it). However, some rules contradict other rules but you're not really expected to catch that.

Plain and simple, it's just darn funny. I laughed out loud so many times and had to read many rules to my wife and oldest son. It is adult based so the majority of the book is unsuitable for children but then, it's pretty sexist too yet all in good humor. Read it for what it is and laugh.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Would recommend but you should read Dixieland Delight first
The book is obviously for men ages 18-35...and that's about the only demographic. If you take the book for what it is, which is complete and utter humor, it's great. My only argument would be that the book is set up numerically (in a list format), similarly to Dixieland Delight, but with many more entries. I didn't really like that aspect of the book. I found it much easier to put down because of this. But, all and all, a fun read that's something different.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Hillarious
This book hits on so many things that are wrong with the "modern" man. So many great quotable one liners.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Green looks good on you
If the book was at least funny I'd cut it a break.

The pinnacle of Manhood is NOT a Sears' Wardrobe, a Super Cuts hairdo and a crazed envy of stylish guys who date super hot women. You can make fun of the Brad Pitts of the world all you want but last I checked they were dating the Jennifer Anistons and the Angelina Jolies. Scoreboard.

Guess what: I'm one of those guys dresses well, wears a bracelet, and gets his eyebrows waxed. I also like football, action movies and my drop dead gorgeous GF.

Being a Metrosexual doesn't mean giving up your manhood believe me. It simply means that your main priority is not trying to impress your ex-frat boy friends. Now if you'll excuse me I have a beautiful, amazing GF who requires my attention.
