Its on my shelf, but I never finished it. I felt like I got the point after the first 10% of the book and it became very boring to me.

Im in the process of reading these 4:
1.
She spent years researching that one. I remember seeing her on various news shows talking about it going way back. Probably very thorough.
This sounds like a good book.
It really was. I read it twice and learned alot. There is even one section on penis size and how it's more closely related to height than race. A question that keeps coming up here.
The title really is misleading but they do answer the question of the title and the answer is yes they do.

Or at least the author does, or maybe she is blonde.
She's not:
There are many more subjects besides haircolor in the book.
That is why I said the title is misleading. Here is one online synopsis:Covering the areas of bodies, brains, and behavior, this eye-opening guide reveals the genetic, hormonal, and psychological secrets behind what makes us tick sexually. For example, do you know why a man’s body chemistry and behavior change when he’s in a committed relationship? And why, when he becomes a daddy, his testosterone level seems to plummet? And did you know…
• When a couple first fall in love, their brains are indistinguishable from those of the clinically insane
• You can tell a lot about a person’s sexual chemistry just by looking at his or her hands
• Your genes influence whose body odors you prefer
• Being around breast-feeding women may increase a woman's sex drive
The part about the newly in love brain being similar to clinically insane I found interesting. They did study on MRI's of both brains in love/insane and so I guess that euphoric feeling when in a new relationship isn't all in our head.

This is clearly a good read Jordan. Although I cannot say I agree with this little factoid:
" And why, when he becomes a daddy, his testosterone level seems to plummet? "
I don't know much about the author, but whenever I read a book like this I always wonder what their own frame of reference is, and what their motivation for writing the book was. I wonder if she has been married or has had successful relationships, has children, has a healthy sex life, etc, etc.
Maybe I will read it.

I got this book through the conservative book club back in the early 90s. It is now out of print, but I think it may have inspired Levin:
Liberty or Equality: The Challenge of Our Times by Erik Ritter von Kuehnelt-Leddihn

Ha! No, it's about what you can do as a mother to prepare your son for his future wife.
