Product Description
Through a process of exhaustive man research he calls "keeping his eyes open," Dick Masterson has compiled a Magnum-size list of the ways men are better than women. It is an infallible compendium of man's greatness, filled with the most egregiously fallacious arguments ever put to words, but with some kind of miraculous, rock-solid man logic dripping like motor oil from every sentence. It is a manifesto more memorable than bullshit like High Fidelity or which Axe baby powder Maxim thinks you should slap on your nuts before clubbing, more chock-full of devastating man quotes than Oscar Wilde with two wangs. Most important, it is the only one of its kind. In Men Are Better Than Women, Dick Masterson dispenses logic from his man mouth into the eyes of his male readers like some kind of mighty mother man eagle with nutrient-rich word vomit. It's a book that makes you feel like driving a train into a dynamite factory and then tearing a telephone book apart with your bare hands, just because that's the way men have always done it. Masterson's chapters are simple and self-contained, demand no commitments from readers, and have an immediate payoff. Men Are Better Than Women is a dangerous work of satire -- not dangerous in a revolutionary sense, but dangerous in that it walks the razor-thin line between cruelty and absurdity. That line is called hilarious.

 Every man should buy this book July 8, 2008

Listen boys, this book is an absolute MUST in this world of ours. Dick Masterson lays it out plain and simple: Men ARE better than women.
Have you ever had a negative experience with a woman? Relationship gone awry? False accusations? Affirmative action?
Well, you have always known deep down inside that there was something you were missing. Some piece of the puzzle that you just didn't have. And Dick Masterson provides you with that missing piece with his book, "Men are better than woman."
Now, a lot of people will say this book is sexist, chauvinist, and politically incorrect. And they would be right. And that is PRECISELY why this book exists!
Our culture of political correctness has created a haven for fallacy and deception. We are constantly bombarded by images and words that tell us that everyone is the same, that we are all equal. And most importantly, that women can do anything men can do.
But that simply isn't true.
We do not HAVE equality in western culture. What we have is a biased legal system, favoring women.
Don't believe me? Perhaps you should look up the following statistics:
Percentage of men who commit suicide VS women.
Percentage of false rape accusations against men VS women.
Percentage of child custody between men and women.
Percentage of deadbeat child support payers between men and women.
Percentage of homeless men VS women.
Percentage of of men VS women who are criminals.
Percentage of criminals who were raised by single mothers.
Percentage of men who initiate divorce VS women.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
Men, I am not saying that women are evil creatures who deserve death. I am saying that in our modern culture, women have been given a free pass for bad behavior, and it needs to stop.
Buy this book, go to menarebetterthanwomen.com, and sign up for the forums at menarebetterthanwomen.com/forums. You won't be disappointed.
Listen, I JUST got the book in the mail today, and I'm half way through it. But I couldn't wait until the end to rite a review. Men simply need to buy this book. And I guarantee you that you won't be disappointed if you do.

This book is GREAT! It finally brought it to my attention that most woman are second class citizens. I had this suspicion for some time, but wasn't willing to admit it fully. Now, with the help of this book, and accompanying website, menarebetterthanwomen.com, I feel like I've been saved. I look at women differently, I see them for what they are, stupid and willing to play victim at the drop of a hat. They are like retarded kids, except they like being retarded, and they don't want to change. I have to just say one thing. There are exceptional women out there. This book has given me a reality check, to go and find those exceptional women, and realize that it's going to be hard. There is a lot of chaff that pass for women for the few grains of wheat. Highly recommended, and written better than the 'Alphabet of Manliness' by Maddox.
Makes a lot of sense. July 2, 2008

If you're a man, you'll find a lot of things in this book relate to you. It's odd to me that the side of the book is marked "humor," because the bulk of what I read was simply non-fiction. If you've ever had to deal with one of those ignorant, ditzy, can't-shut-her-mouth-for-two-minutes, attention whores (and you know you have)... you'll enjoy this book. Myths are dispelled, arguments are backed up with statistics, and the majority of Masterson's words make you sit back and say "I never thought of it that way, but he's right." It definitely reinforced a lot of suspicions I had already, in a very entertaining way. Must read for any man.

For those who can't handle some truth and humor, this book is not for you. We live in a society that's blinded by politically correct notions of men and women, when in reality men and women are different. the point of this book is to state all of the reasons why men are better than women. for all of the women and the soft-sided men out there who are offended from the book, instead of sitting and crying about it on a blog, go out and write a book about all of the reasons why women are better than men. you'll unfortunately find that it won't even come close to the number of pages of this book though...
like i said...if you can't take a joke then don't read this book.
 horrendous and unfunny June 24, 2008

The book is the author's attempt to ride the coattails of Tucker Max, the original pioneer of Boy adventure literature. Except, instead of funny anecdotes that occasionally rub people the wrong way, the entire book is offensive to such a degree that it will undoubtedly motivate women to cut men entirely out of their lives and convince them that the world would be better off without them. And just like the Marilyn Manson phenomena, next time we hear about a domestic violence report, someone is bound to point a finger at Dick Masterson. Lets hope the novelty wears off soon.
