Prepare to enter a fantasy world. A world where clothes get folded just so, delicious dinners await, and flatulence is just not that funny. Give the fairer sex what they really want beautiful PG photos of hunky men cooking, listening, asking for directions, accompanied by steamy captions: "I love a clean house!" or "As long as I have two legs to walk on, you'll never take out the trash." Now this is porn that will leave women begging for more!

This book is incredibly dead-on! It really sums up the things that make women happy! I took this book around the office and every person thought this was hilarious, even the men! It is a must own!

How is this book offensive to women and why are most of the people claiming it is guys? I'm a woman and I'm not offended in the least. My best friend showed me this book (and yes, she's a woman, too... we're both in our 30s) and we both find it hysterical and yes, true. While guys out there enjoy watching videos of other guys having sex with 2 18 year old girls at once, women want a man who isn't afraid of doing the dirty work of the day - i.e. cleaning the house, doing the laundry, taking care of us for a change. To say otherwise is an outright lie. This book doesn't insinuate that women don't like sex, it merely reveals that we aren't obsessed with it like men are, especially not to the point of "needing" to watch porn. One reviewer claims this is outright pornography. How? Because some guys without shirts are doing the laundry or cleaning the house? How is that pornography? I've noticed that most of the negative comments come from men - what does that tell you? That men are the ones who are offended by this, not women. I guess men are offended by the idea of *gasp* having to do the same menial chores that women have been expected to do for centuries, nay, millennia.

Of course I read through it myself and laughed quite a lot before giving it to my sweet spouse. I've said the same thing to him before (ie: being a supportive partner is a turn-on) but I think the humor in this might be a more effective way to convey the message.

This is an awesome book for all women who need a pick-me up and want to be reminded how men can be (but most likely are not!). This is NOT an xxx rated type porn book but more like a humor / romantic idea of what women would like. No nudity, just humor... will put a smile on any woman's face.

Well, based on what this book and its publishers would have you believe, that's the inarguable truth.
This reeks strongly of an incredibly weak attempt to subvert the 50's books on how to be a "good wife" by intimating that all women TRULY want in our lives is a fella that will pull his own weight, gosh darn it! ... Which: no. Not only is it insulting to the entirety of the female population by its unfaltering insistence that we have more interest in a clean house than getting laid (no, dear man, that's your fantasy, not mine), but it's equally insulting in its insinuation that men have not moved into a societal place where these tasks are commonplace. I have a sneaking suspicion these "women" should get out more into the world, and stop messing up my search terms. If I wanted garbage, I wouldn't have keyed in "porn."

What a great idea! You bet watching men being attentive, caring and focused on ME is sexy. And you know what? Why shouldn't men be doing that stuff for us? This isn't a about women's equality (as some reviewers have complained), but instead it's about women being treated as if we are important in a relationship! Women don't always have to be the "nurturers!" If only all men could see this book before they start dating. I'll be buying it for my sisters and friends! Too bad it is a fantasy! :)

Freud wanted to know what women really want and this book plays up on what us women know is true--that an attractive, attentive man is sexy. And like true pornography, this is an idealized version of men. We don't expect them to be just like this, but if they got close, we'd be ecstatic. The situations and captions are funny. An amusing, harmless gift that will have your girlfriends chuckling.You can send a friend a postcard by going to wannasnuggle.com

I bought this for my wife on Valentine's day. She enjoyed it and decided she will give it to her girlfriends.
To other reviewers writing this book is insulting to women, I would say that this book is rather a blow to guys like myself, as it illustrates how self-oriented and shortsighted they are. This book just express the expectations of woman, rather than ours. It's a way to tell us: open yours eyes and think about her before your own little pleasure. Difficult for us to admit but refreshing to read for women. I wished this book had had a few pages to explain the result of the study on women's expectations and issues with guys. Thus 1 star off.

I purchased this book for myself and sent another copy to a group of female co-workers for Valentine's Day. We all love this book. The models are handsome, without being 'beefcake' and the captions are very funny. Of course, we are all strong and smart enough to appreciate the humor of this book without feeling degraded.
I find it hard to believe that customers would purchase this book and not get the joke. I mean, come on...there's a barefoot male model vacuuming on the cover! Were you really expecting porn? Or better yet, something cerebral? It's a cute little $10 book meant to give you a laugh. Get over yourselves, people.... (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-03-01 05:10:51 EST)

I bought this book -- basically men doing housework and telling women things like, "I'm so interested in what you're saying..please tell me more!" -- as a small, fun, birthday gift for some of my best friends. They all loved it!

Everyone has one person on their Christmas list that is impossible to shop for. My husband's aunt is that person. I got this book for her after reading the reviews. I have never seen that woman laugh so hard in my life. She couldn't stop reading through the book aloud and showing us the pictures. She has been taking it to all of the family get togethers since Christmas and the women in the family just can't get enough of this book.

I have no idea what a few ladies are talking about on here but I love sex and if my hubby would open his shirt and dust my ceiling fan you bet I would get hot and as soon as he was done...well...I'll leave that to your imagination. I love this book and plan on buying a few more for some friends who I know will love it too. To each his own, no one will love everything everyone else loves. So, why get upset. Let it go, breath..do some yoga..eat some ice cream..find what you love and let the rest enjoy the book!

I purchased this as a gift for a woman over 60. It was a BIG hit with her and all the friends sharing the birthday lunch celebration. I learned about the book from my daughter who also found it to be fun. It is very tastfully written and illustrated.

i know funny...and this, my dear women is funny. i, too, plan to buy several copies and dispense them liberally throughout the holiday season to all my women friends. maybe even to some of my men friends -- those that have a sense of humor and are able to laugh at themselves. because they recognize themselves. even my husband, a man well schooled in the art of denial found himself laughing. buy this book for your girlfriends. they'll laugh. and they'll thank you profusely.

The concept of this book I found very funny. However, since you can read the whole thing at the book store AND have a good laugh with the clerk at same time, it's a bit of waste of trees at the price.

After seeing this book and being amused page after page by the simple, hilarious photos of men saying all the right things, I bought four of these to give as Christmas gifts to my female friends. The writing is funny, the photos are terrific... I wish the guys had been a bit more attractive-- they're nice looking but nothing to fawn over. My guess is that any woman age 30-60 who's ever been in a relationship will laugh.

Ladies, this is really HOT! No, I mean really, really HOT!
This is a book of men as you've always dreamed you'd see them: vacuuming, doing dishes (WITHOUT being asked) and pumping some real iron, by getting your outfit ready before he takes you out in it! This book would make an awesome gift for a bridal shower or for any woman you know who just needs a GOOD LAUGH! (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-10-14 01:19:05 EST)

After ordering this book based on the positive reviews it's obvious to me that the reviews are fake. I found the book to be unreadable, devoid of humor, logic and a point of view, sad and pathetic. Oh, and please note the defensive, hostile comments to any negative review for the book. What does that tell you about who is writing these comments? Casual bystanders? I think not. It's pretty obvious there's an abundance of fake reviews for this insipid piece of unfunny garbage.

I had heard about this little book from friends and it lives up to expectation! This is not your average porn..these guys are hot. Especially if you like a man that cleans the toilet for you, skips the playoffs to go to a craft show, puts the seat down, thinks you are too thin and other risque actions! The men are hunks and the concept is super. Men are really sexy when they do nice and thoughtful things for us!

Men and women alike will enjoy this little book. I have purchased several and given them to my friends. We howled, we chose our favorite "fantasy", and we are still talking about it. Put this on your coffee table, and it will become a conversation piece in your home. Lots of fun.

I am so GLAD to know that other people find this book fuuny. There are a lot of online postings out there that are really critical of the book. And I think I would be critical of it too -- if I had absolutely ZERO sense of humor. The point of the book is not literally that men doing housework is what gets women hot. The idea behind porn, real porn, is that it's such a fantasy. And, if your life is anything like mine, then the idea of a guy (even my male roommate, much less my boyfriend) changing the toilet paper roll constitutes a fantasy that I would put in the same category as Lord of the Rings. I'm sending this to my best friend, who is having relationship stress with her boyfriend and I hope it makes her laugh the way I laughed. Meantime, if you want to get into what men are really like, I suggest Men, Love & Sex by David Zinczenko -- very funny, insightful and helpful.

This book is great, ridiculous fun. On some of the pages we couldn't help going "mmmmm" in between giggles at the dreamy expressions on the models' faces... Older and younger women all got a kick out of it, while brothers/dads/nephews shook their heads in despair. Nothing embarrassing here- just harmless fun. Now we're looking for dorm posters...please let us know if you can tell us how to find them!

What a funny book. I am so surprised some people think it's sexist. It's not -- it's FUNNY. Men may fantasize about Jenna Jameson, but women fantasize about a man who would say and do the things the paragons in this book do. Anyway, I have already given away one as a gift and plan to buy many more to give to friends and family.

This book is a crack up. As a woman with an advanced degree in a technical field and a career, I get a little tired of the housework, the childcare, and everything else that has to do with domesticity. I love it when my husband recognizes how much I do, and I find it a turn on. That's what this book is about and I highly recommend it to other career-minded women who also have family responsibilities.

The average woman has desires that the average man can hardly fathom, much less fulfill. Thankfully, this book provides the first ever Sensitive Male Substitute.
An overly ambitious man might look at this book and try to act out the fantasies. The rest of us can give it to our significant others, sit back, and reap the benefits. --Sammy Conner, author of The Dirty Parts of the Bible (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-07-10 11:28:23 EST)

I bought this book for a female friend of mine expecting good humor and what I paid $14 for plus shipping is and insipid "attempt" at humor. I am really unhappy that this book was of such poor quality that I can not give it to a woman I know. Perhaps the authors could suggest some completely clueless females who would enjoy it. What a waste of money! Mark Twain is still the best American humorist and these folks are the worst.

Thumbed through this book in the book store and there were tears in my eyes from laughing so hard. My husband was with me at the time and although he wasn't exactly crying he did have a good chuckle with me. All in all thought the fact that it is so funny "tragic"-- in a light hearted way ;-)

In a world where real progressive women are out to demonstrate that their sex can have ambitions as grand and respectable as men, this book decides to step in and say "All women care about is housework *tee-hee!*" One page features the model saying "Why don't I buy a minivan so you can drive something fun?" What's the message here? That it's better to be dependant on your partner's income than to go out and earn a car by yourself? If you want to do women a favor, dream up a fantasy world that does not circle around being treated like a hamster. I'm sure that if men were to make an equivilant of this book, it would include phrases like "I'm gonna go get a rewarding career so we can afford to pay somebody else to clean our stupid house!" and "No, I'm not going to buy a book of trite jokes that perpetuate gender stereotypes in order to deliver a passive-agressive point to you, honey."

As an ardent First Amendment supporter and a feminist scholar who has done lots of research on sex work, porn, etc., I fully support women who enjoy "regular" porn, or feminist porn that includes, well, sex, as this book does not. But to the reviewers who slammed this particular book for its "offensive" assumption that women only find housework sexy, I think you're missing the point.
The book is not reifying the notion that women do not like sex. Nor are they claiming that "regular" porn and this brand of "porn" are mutually exclusive, or that women can't appreciate both. They are merely expanding the concept of what's considered sexy, what can be considered a turn-on, and what can be defined as sensual. Rather than narrowly define what is sexy as that which is explicitly sex-oriented (and such a narrow definition would be more offensive, I would think, than any photo in this book), this book evokes a spectrum, and encourages people to find the sensual in the everyday. And c'mon, anything that can make dull chores more exciting should be celebrated! Yes, it's cheesy and some of the photos/quotes are even cringe-worthy. But that just adds to the campy appeal. But it's also a lighthearted, silly gift book, so there's no need (for detractors or even for me, reading so much into it) to take it so darn seriously. If it's not your idea of fun, simply don't purchase it. (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-06-03 09:39:34 EST)

This is a clever, fun little book with photos of hunky guys saying such 'sexy' things as, "of course you don't look fat in those jeans." I bought several as funny mother's day gifts to my exhausted "mommy" friends, and they all got a big kick out of it and could relate to several of the scenarios in the book. It only takes about 10 minutes to look through, and it's a nice pick-me-up. Enjoy!!

It's a joke, folks, it's supposed to be enjoyable. It's not earthshaking or revealing, just some good looking guys doing housework, that sort of thing. If you're offended or feel it sets women back a zillion years, oh well, it sucks to be you. Just don't buy it or act highly offended if somebody passes a copy around.
I intend to buy a few copies* of this book and give them as gifts. It makes me laugh. I think of "That '70s Show" when they were showing the various characters' fantasies. The main mom, Kitty, is laying on the sofa, saying "Oh, right there, Red, oh" and the camera pulls back and you see Red, her character's husband, dusting a tall lamp. It was funny, because it was silly. SO buy it if you think you can take the joke, avoid it if you're easily offended. *FYI I don't get a kickback from the publishers for recommending this book and I have absolutely nothing to do with the group that put it together. (That was suggested of one of the reviewers) If they wanted to give me a kickback, I'd probably accept. Or not. Depends on what the offer was. (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-05-15 21:58:21 EST)

Note to authors: if you want to have a successful book, try coming up with a concept that doesn't offend 51% of the population, namely, women. I hated this book. It speaks down to women and makes the argument that we don't like sex. I could've sworn this was the year 2007.
My suggestion: return to the year 1962, when a book like this may have been considered funny. But then again, probably not. WARNING: even if you believe women are an inferior sex who deserve to be subjugated, this book is simply not funny. (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-05-09 07:11:16 EST)

Whoever said this book is lame and sexist needs to have their head examined. Sexist? I'm a 42 year mother of two, former journalist and an 'independent woman'. I found the book hysterical and right on. It's funny, but true. All my friends are passing it around, and our husbands like it even better. It's a great laugh. It's also PG, so one can give it to almost anyone as a gift. I'm giving it to just about everyone on my list!

Sexist, dull, unimaginative and a blatant rip off of similar stuff. This may have been fresh in, say, 1972.
I would sincerely urge the authors of this alleged book to check out something called "Money Secrets" by Dave Barry. Maybe some of the humor will rub off, because Porn For Women is completely 100%, bereft of laughter. Dave Barry's Money Secrets: Like: Why Is There a Giant Eyeball on the Dollar? In closing I'd just like to add that I'm pretty sure the positive reviews of this book were all written by the authors, or friends of theirs. When a "reader" takes umbrage and gets all bent out of shape by a negative review, you know that person is more than just a book buyer, right? (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-04-26 07:04:26 EST)
