THE ULTIMATE INTERPRETER OF GUY BEHAVIOR

Why doesn't my man get me flowers?

Easy - because flowers don't do anything cool.

Will I scare him off if I call him first?

No way. Well, not unless he's actually terrified of his phone, in which case you likely have bigger problems.

Why can't he just talk to me about our relationship?

Yeah . . . and how come a gazelle never waits around to see if that lion is friendly?

Men sometimes seem impossible to understand. But it turns out they're about as easy to read as coloring books - if you know what you're looking for. Manslations answers all these questions and more in this hilarious - and honest - guide to what men say, who they are, and why they behave the way they do.

"When that guy told you - within thirty seconds of introducing himself at the bar - that he drives a hybrid because he cares about the environment, the manslation is that he was trying to work his way into your bikini areas."

Manslations reveals the golden rule that helps you figure out what never to worry about (and what to lose sleep over), plus the two key questions that will help unlock the meaning behind even the most confusing male actions. Capped off by a man-to-woman phrasebook, this is the only relationship guide you'll ever need.

      Comedian Mac wants to cure women of their confusion about how men think and what their words really mean. His book, relying heavily on broad comedy—which mostly works—and wearisome clichés of the “man as caveman,” is at once entertaining and disturbing. An analysis of the first date and a handy glossary of terms to decipher the real meanings of “I give great massages” and “of course I wasn't looking at her” are entertaining and uncomfortably accurate, but the author unwittingly turns his own gender from “simple” to simpleminded in his portrayal of men as profoundly uncomplicated creatures primarily motivated by sex. On occasion he lets women in on some valuable truths: for example, men don't fear intimacy, challenging women or commitment—unless they don't like you—or that men are capable of having sex with women “they actively dislike.” He does a fine job of warning women against certain unsavory types as well as alerting women to their own bad habits—participating in flattering delusions (“he's not calling me because he's scared of how much he likes me”).
