Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives Paperback – December 3, 2002
Purchase options and add-ons
Dr. Laura Schlessinger, the incredibly popular and controversial psychotherapist who hosts a nationally syndicated, top-rated midday radio talk show, has strong convictions and doesn't hesitate to voice them to callers.
She urges women emphatically to lose a domineering jerk of a lover and pick one of the "good guys," to stay home and parent the babies they've made, and to follow the dream rather than some dreamboat. Above all, she exhorts women not to blame anybody or anything but themselves if they're unhappy and their lives seem a mess.
10 Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives uses real-world examples from Schlessinger's radio show and private practice to drive the message home: once we muster the courage to take responsibility for our own problems and to tolerate the discomforts of risk, the possibilities for personal growth and joy are limitless.
If you're prepared to take a clear-eyed look at your self-diminishing behavior and to make the move to a quality existence, there's no one better than Schlessinger to keep you honest and to cheer you on. One thing's for sure: You'll never look at your relationships, behaviors and decisions the same way after you've finished reading this book.

From the Back Cover
10 Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives uses real-world examples from Schlessinger's radio show and private practice to drive the message home. And the message is that our reticence to be bold and brave often makes us act like stupid, submissive victims. Once we muster the courage to take responsibility for our own problems and to tolerate the discomforts of risk, the possibilities for personal growth and joy are limitless.
If you're looking for an all-approving hand to hold, you won't find it here. If you're prepared to take a clear-eyed look at your self-diminishing behavior and to make the move to a quality existence, there's no one better than Schlessinger to keep you honest and to cheer you on. One thing's for sure: You'll never look at your relationships, behaviors and decisions the same way after you've finished reading this book.

You can lead a horse to water.... but you can not make it drink.
Excellent examples of real stories and real problems, in a very light hearted yet with realistic expectations, easily miss by the female population around the world!.
I enjoyed it indeed.
世間には、理想の男性の心を射止める本がおそらく山のようにあるでしょう。そこにかかれている内容は「どのような男性が自分を幸せにしてくれるか」見極めるノウハウ、その男性をいとめるノウハウの数々・・・。
しかしドクターローラは違います。厳しくユーモラスにこういいきります。
「理想の恋愛がしたい、結婚がしたい、家庭をもちたい?
じゃあ聞くけど、あなたは理想の女性なの???」
「さっきから男の悪口ばかりいっているけど、あなたは正しいことをやっていると胸を張っていえるわけ?どうよ??」
「うう・・・そ、それは・・・」と身につまされる場所も多々あり、非常に面白くリズム感がある簡!単な英語でかかれているのでお勧めです。おもしろくってためになって一気に読める、女性として凛と生きていくための10の秘策。厳しいだけではなく、自分の幸せを手にいれるため、不必要な傷で心を痛めないように守備するヒントもちりばめられた傑作です。
