The first thing I noticed was that every single book was for women. Meaning, we are either the only gender that believes we need help when it comes to forming loving relationships, or we are the only gender that knows how to read.

More likely the bookstore refused to stock PUA books because muh soggy knees.

She must be incredibly ugly as they used a stock photo rather than the author's.

Sounds like those books are all screaming one message to this woman: STOP BEING A NEEDY, DRAINING, SMOTHERING, SELFISH PSYCHOPATH.

And her response is, "No, that can't be it. Surely, this is somehow mens' fault."

Enjoy your cat husbands.

I decided to highlight some of my favorite parts:

I knew full well that if men really did love bitches, I'd be swimming in commitment.

So she straight up admits she's a bitch, and yet she wonders why she's single.

The first thing I noticed was that every single book was for women. Meaning, we are either the only gender that believes we need help when it comes to forming loving relationships, or we are the only gender that knows how to read.

Oh yes, it couldn't possibly be that the other 95% of the store contains books and subjects men are interested in reading about, no, surely because the one tiny section devoted to self-help books are written exclusively by female authors pretending as if they're not peddling dating advice for lonely spinsters like yourself, it must mean that only women know how to read.

"Don't be the girl who is smothering him when he wakes up, asking him to take you to brunch." Fuck that—I love brunch. I want scrambled eggs.

Then buy yourself some scrambled eggs, bitch. You're out of your mind thinking he wants to waste even more money on you the day after you put out.

"When you go on a first date, tell him you 'don't want to be in a serious relationship' (for the time being)." Wink, wink. But I do want to be in a serious relationship. I don't want to have to lie. All that these books managed to reveal to me is that there is an underlying issue with the state of dating, and it has nothing to do with women being too needy as much as it has to do with men being skittish wimps.

Really? It seems more to me that the underlying issue with the state of dating is that the only thing women know how to do is lie, cheat & manipulate men in order to exploit him.

Now, they're spoiled. They're being told that nothing is wrong with their irrational fear of commitment. We just have to get better at trapping them in our cages.

ROFL. I have spent my entire life since childhood til now hearing from TV, movies, books, and women in real life that all men are cowards who are scared of commitment and that we need to man up. It's really funny how the princess who wrote this drivel complaining about how she can't trap a man even though she is flat out refusing to follow any dating advice in her "self-help" books is calling *us* spoiled.

Bawden's book cover looked like an ad for some sort of feminine douche product.

So does your shitty attempt at an article, lady.

By day 10, I was completely stumped. I ran out of compliments for myself. How the hell are you supposed to keep inventing new things that you like about yourself? However, having to do this every day ended up making me doubt how much I actually love me. Is it normal to run out of genuinely good things to say about yourself by day ten?

LMFAO. This might be my favorite part of the entire article. The joke just writes itself.

At the end of the day, these books both instil the idea that there is something very wrong with women. I have no problem admitting there are things about me I should fix, but I am fed up with feeling like I am the only one this is required of.

Awww, gee. If only you could get married, huh?! Then you would have your very own personal scapegoat to project all of your insecurities & blame all your faults on. And you could spend all your time as a housewife watching Netflix 14 hours a day, getting drunk off boxed wine and growing fatter and fatter as all those stretchmarks & cellulite sets in.

Enjoy dying alone, bitch.

The author raises so many red flags about herself. Presuming she's young, she can pick any beta to leash for life. But she's gotta have a 666 Chad. But a 666 Chad doesn't need her.
