Quite by accident, it offers women time-tested strategies how to snag their man. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst, there was \u003ci\u003eThe Rules: Time-tested Secrets for Capturing the Heart of Mr. Right\u003c\/i\u003e by Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider (Warner Books, 1995). Several years later came the parody book, \u003ci\u003eBreaking the Rules: Last-ditch Tactics for Landing the Man of Your Dreams\u003c\/i\u003e by Laura Banks and Janette Barber (Career Press, 1997). As a parody of \u003ci\u003eThe Rules\u003c\/i\u003e, it offered, \"All rules are made to be broken.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow it is time for the sensitive man's point of view in this parody of a parody, \u003ci\u003eSide-Stepping the Rules: Broken or Not\u003c\/i\u003e. Unlike the previous two books, \u003ci\u003eThe Rules\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBreaking the Rules\u003c\/i\u003e, the parody \u003ci\u003eSide-Stepping the Rules: Broken or Not\u003c\/i\u003e offers men childish ways for escaping the clutches of the woman, even a \u003ci\u003eRB\u003c\/i\u003e (Rule Breakin') woman, who thinks she is \u003ci\u003eMrs. Right\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSide-Stepping the Rules: Broken or Not\u003c\/i\u003e provides the sensitive male with 11 manifestos that will serve as countermeasures to the wiles of \u003ci\u003eRB\u003c\/i\u003e women. No worries mate! If you fail to apply successfully the first manifesto, you still have 10 more chances to fight off those pesky \u003ci\u003eRB\u003c\/i\u003e women. Even if you are unsuccessful with the first 10 manifestos, the final manifesto, \"Sell your house and blend invisibly with the homeless,\" still provides you-the most pitiful representation of \u003ci\u003eman\u003c\/i\u003ekind-a way out. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor those readers who are inpatient and used cliff notes to float through high school, save yourself time by turning to Chapter 12 now and \u003ci\u003eConsult Your MAN Index\u003c\/i\u003e. The \u003ci\u003eMAN Index\u003c\/i\u003e offers you the chance to pinpoint immediately how you will fare with the approaches of a \u003ci\u003eRB\u003c\/i\u003e woman. The \u003ci\u003eMAN Index\u003c\/i\u003e is based grossly on an unscientific and nebulous study with the underlying theorem: You are what you eat! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, the reader is escorted or forced into the 21st century-depending on whether you now use an abacus or a computer. A glossary of terms is provided that help you understand women in Cyberspace. Don't enter the 21st century without it! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eI began writing little stories for children of friends and relatives that included their personal data about their personal lives. This happened about 15 years before such books became popular commercially. It was these stories that formed the basis of my first children's book, \u003ci\u003eTwelve Upon A Time ... \u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI also wrote a mystery\/adventure novel, \u003ci\u003eMirror, Mirror at 1600 D.C.\u003c\/i\u003e This political intrigue novel gives you characters in believable relationships bound up in a mystery and an adventure that will keep you speculating throughout the book. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter that serious effort, I took a light-hearted approach in this parody book, \u003ci\u003eSide-Stepping the Rules: Broken or Not\u003c\/i\u003e. This parody provides the reader with the gift of laughter from the male perspective as it offers men childish ways for escaping the clutches of the woman who thinks she is Mrs. Right. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSide-Stepping the Rules: Broken or Not\u003c\/i\u003e provides the sensitive male with 11 manifestos that will serve as countermeasures to the wiles of RB women. No worries mate! Even if you are unsuccessful with the first 10 manifestos, the final manifesto, \"Sell your house and blend invisibly with the homeless,\" still provides you-the most pitiful representation of mankind-a way out. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with all my books, I hope the reader enjoys the read as much as I enjoyed the write.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edward Galluzzi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1926918185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781926918181\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CCB Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/17\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.25d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edward Galluzzi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445888332031,"sku":"9781926918181","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aa06b5b5-857a-415e-b67f-c4831b2f9b5e.jpg?v=1777221313","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/side-stepping-the-rules-edward-galluzzi-9781926918181","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
