Discover how to tap into the psyche of today's woman and attract her without doing a damn thing! The Age of Passivity: At last, a seduction strategy for the end of the millennium. Throughout this... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Looks like the reviewers are pretty much split down the middle on this book -- half of them think it's lame, the other half thinks it's nothing short of a masterpiece. Pencil me in with the latter group, Franklin Parlamis has hit the nail on the head with this one. To start with, it's insightful and, at times, thought-provoking. On just about every page I had to stop and think about what he was saying. Not because it was hard to grasp (that's actually part of the beauty of The Passive Man's Guide, it's an easy read), but because it was mind-opening and made me think in terms of myself and my social life. Secondly, it's funny -- downright funny. He had me laughing non-stop.The bottom line is you shouldn't miss out on this book. It's one of the better self-help dating books that works. The advice is practical and the techniques aren't throw-aways. And you will get better with women -- with this amazing book who couldn't?

Don't know what these last few reviews are all about, they obviously didn't read the same book as I did. Simplest to say that I learned a load from it, and you will too. Highly entertaining, good information that's helpful not just in dating or meeting situations, just go ahead and purchase this book.
finally a book for the nice guys!

I really liked this book because it is totally different than most dating books out there. Most of the books I have seen are oriented in teaching poeple how to be players who are only interested in a one night stand. This one focuses on everybody else that might actually be interested in something meaningful. Good job!
An insightful perspective on the art of socializing

Tremendous! Well written and offering very-telling examples of the dos and dont's of picking up women. I am 27 years old - well beyond the formative scamming days - yet this book really pulled it all together for me - showing me the psychology behind the art of meeting and seducing women.
Written with real insight, razor-sharp wit.

Dating books are usually funny by default, full of lame tips that are unintentionally humorous. Finally, a manual on approaching women that doesn't insult the intelligence- this book assumes that its audience understands the value of a laugh. Meeting people isn't easy, and Parlamis mines the humor within the struggle with an easy charm. This is a manual for the shy, the tongue-tied, and the guy that wants to move up a level in the dog-eat-dog world of intersexual relations. For those that don't think that they need a manual, relax and enjoy the riffs of a shrewd observationist. For those men out there who are longing for female companionship- don't waste eight bucks for another lonely movie night alone or with the guys- read this book, relax and apply its wisdom. This book is more entertaining than Must See TV, funnier than a drunken cat, and more useful than a can opener. Put down that porno and get passive. It's not as fun at first, but pays greater dividends over the long term. Plus it's not as sticky.
