So you just had to post to tell the whole world what a useless book it is. Has nothing to do with being triggered by the title.

Also y'all: This book that I absolutely did not read, skim, buy, or borrow from the library is absolutely not a good deal and should be heavily downvoted!!! I'm going to make jokes about burning it because that's good and normal behaviour.
Exactly

Hey look at me! I got a deal and you didn't. I am therefore superior as I prance around and show them off in my signature.

Nothing to do with title, again mainly annoyed because of the poster and because it's a nonsense post. He usally does this, not sure if he's a troll or just likes drama.

In that case, I can just screen capture the cover and use it as a virtual background for free. (Maybe use a kitten avatar at the same time.)

The sequel to the book

It's just a topic easy to make jokes out of.
Nothing substantive to do with the book really.

Title should be "How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace without getting MeToo-ed". Added bonus a preface that's womensplainig the toxic masculinity.

Where are my big boy pants? In case anyone is wondering why such a book would ever be written, here is some from other book, that seems to be inopposition...
"Woman is a misbegotten man and has a faulty and defective nature in comparison to his. Therefore she is unsure in herself. What she cannot get, she seeks to obtain through lying and diabolical deceptions. And so, to put it briefly, one must be on one’s guard with every woman, as if she were a poisonous snake and the horned devil. … Thus in evil and perverse doings woman is cleverer, that is, slyer, than man. Her feelings drive woman toward every evil, just as reason impels man toward all good.

As regards the individual nature, woman is defective and misbegotten, for the active force in the male seed tends to the production of a perfect likeness in the masculine sex; while the production of woman comes from a defect in the active force or from some material indisposition, or even from some external influence.

Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

is this what they are all upset about?

Why the bounce to Expired? The deal is clearly still on. Mods didn't want to clean it up?

dark2026 wrote: I don't know about this book or of its quality, but "How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace" is definitely an interesting topic for a book... I just don't know who it's aimed for - people reading this willingly probably are already doing the right things. People who need to read it are probably the ones who will never do so willingly...

Me though? I'm just here for the comments :twisted:
Well if the target audience is male, I’d like to think that ppl doing the right thing would be introspective enough to know there are always things to learn and are always things we may be unmaliciously overlooking. Self help books exist for many purposes.

To those saying you can find this online for free, you can say that about pretty much anything since libraries exists and .pdf google search trick often works. Books are sold too ppl, and they go on sale as well. Up to you to figure out if it is a deal.

That aside, it’s pretty telling to see how many downvotes this has gotten and I doubt it is because a 200+ page book is $20
