How Not to Date- Book Review.

Smelly Penis!
Ok, now that I have your attention.
Check out the recent book review I wrote for www.LoveHowTo.com
I’m only posting a bit here on the blog…
How Not to Date by Judy McGuire is a first-rate book on, well, how to date.
The author’s quick-witted and well-timed words about dating are a result of her seven-plus years spent mostly single, and as a sex and love advice columnist. She describes right off the get-go in the introduction, “dates that were so heinous it’s truly a wonder that my vagina didn’t seal itself shut.”
It’s statements such as this about her own personal life experiences, the good, the bad and the VERY, VERY ugly, that are entirely refreshing, and unlike so many of the other dating books.
One of my favorite McGuire anecdotes is in Part 1, Oooh, That Smell! I have never dated a man who wore vinyl pants and was intrigued to read about the guy she was dating named Ned.
Ned was a strict vegan and refused to wear any leather. Therefore he opted to dress in vinyl pants. Another aspect of Ned’s strict vegan guidelines was his feeling that “cleanliness was just another construct of the bourgeoisie.”
Sounds like a fun dinner date to me!
McGuire goes on to write about Ned’s utter “STENCH” and how one night she had to blatantly tell her vegan, vinyl pants-wearing boy to take a shower. It was when he protested the shower idea that she had to explain to him why he HAD to bathe: “because he expected me to put his smelly penis in my mouth.”
