Product Description
Through a process of exhaustive man research he calls "keeping his eyes open," Dick Masterson has compiled a Magnum-size list of the ways men are better than women. It is an infallible compendium of man's greatness, filled with the most egregiously fallacious arguments ever put to words, but with some kind of miraculous, rock-solid man logic dripping like motor oil from every sentence. It is a manifesto more memorable than bullshit like High Fidelity or which Axe baby powder Maxim thinks you should slap on your nuts before clubbing, more chock-full of devastating man quotes than Oscar Wilde with two wangs. Most important, it is the only one of its kind. In Men Are Better Than Women, Dick Masterson dispenses logic from his man mouth into the eyes of his male readers like some kind of mighty mother man eagle with nutrient-rich word vomit. It's a book that makes you feel like driving a train into a dynamite factory and then tearing a telephone book apart with your bare hands, just because that's the way men have always done it.
Masterson's chapters are simple and self-contained, demand no commitments from readers, and have an immediate payoff. Men Are Better Than Women is a dangerous work of satire -- not dangerous in a revolutionary sense, but dangerous in that it walks the razor-thin line between cruelty and absurdity. That line is called hilarious.

Half-baked,
By
This review is from: Men Are Better Than Women (Paperback)
Always ready for a good laugh, especially a fresh take on man-woman peculiarities, I was expecting fun. Instead, I was greeted by half-baked ideas that barely qualify as joke material; not the "1 line, 1 punch" kind, the "15 lines, no punch" one. The core is there, the author shows great observational skills, a vast array of angles to address the feminine side of humanity; I guess a second edition, with a little help from someone with experience with standup would be much better. You just can't just reuse "women suck" as a punchline; it's not creative, thus not very funny.

This review is from: Men Are Better Than Women (Paperback)
If you take the word "Woman" in this book and replace it with the title of any other race or ethnicity (Asian, Black, White) what you will get is a hate-crime. That is what this book is it's a Hate-Crime towards women. There are certain jokes told by other comedians about the opposite sex that are hilarious and very true in one way or another, however the contents of this book demean women in every way and none of which can even be taken seriously. The amount of embarrassment I felt while reading this book is indescribable. Embarrassed that someone would actually write a book to demoralize women without any real hard evidence or facts.The only thing I was thinking while reading this book was that either the author was never loved by his mother as a child, was an orphan and never had a mother and has resented his mother his whole life culminating his anger and hate into this book, or he recently got dumped and dumped HARD and went on a Man-Loving Rampage.
