It’s good for women to read. The way he describes this book is easy to understand, the difference between what women and men thinking.

Pretty funny, mildly entertaining. Do I agree with everything in this book? Not by a long shot. I'm a firm believer in "the cookie" staying in the cookie jar until the honeymoon. I don't think 90 days is the "let's do this!" time, and I don't believe that every man fits into this cozy little box Steve Harvey has created. I do agree with his three basic points that most men want to provide, protect, and profess. Not a horrible book but not a relationship Bible either.

I was one year out of an almost 20-year marriage and the fog was clearing, revealing a surprising gap in my knowledge. At 40-something, I was a bit clueless about this creature called “man”. Yes, I had been married to one…technically. The past year had confirmed my long-time suspicions that my ex was not a typical one resulting in occasional befuddlement with my new (German) guy. Since understanding is the antidote to confusion, and I’m clearly passionate about dating and relationships, I immediately embarked on an investigation of men. (Next would be a study of the German culture…but, I digress.)

I set out to find a book about men written by a man. A distant memory of a giggle-inducing conversation between Oprah and comedian Steve Harvey resurfaced. I could definitely use some humor on my first reconnaissance mission. Being a man and a comedian make Mr. Harvey highly qualified on the subject of men. But, seriously, there really is legitimate substance to his resumé. As host of the syndicated radio show, “The Steve Harvey Morning Show,” he fielded hundreds of “man questions” from confused women and sought answers from as many men. The result is an insightful and balanced “man”-ual that will not only guide, but entertain, those women looking to be in a “solid, committed relationship”. Will he be getting a Pulitzer any time soon? Not a chance. Just focus on his honesty and fairness as he pokes equal fun at the common traits and oft-repeated misbehaviors of both genders…not his writing. Mr. Harvey believes men and women to be wired differently and their respective behaviors should reflect this wiring. (Click HERE to read more about this touchy issue.) His goal is clearly to empower women and protect them from those men who seek to objectify and use them making this a very worthy read indeed.

My investigation is far from complete…stay tuned for the results of future reconnaissance missions.

Steve Harvey can’t count the number of impressive women he’s met over the years—women who can run a business, keep a household with three kids in tiptop shape, and chair a church group all at the same time. So when it comes to relationships, why can’t these women figure out what makes men tick? According to Steve it’s because they’re asking other women for advice when they should be going directly to the source. In Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, Steve lets women inside the male mindset; introduces concepts such as the ninety-day rule; and reveals the five questions women should ask a potential partner to determine how serious he is. Sometimes funny, sometimes direct, but always truthful, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man is a book you must read if you want to understand how men think when it comes to relationships, intimacy, and love.
