Act Like a Lady; Think Like a Man- NYT's Best Seller





The best advice to get about men is from a 50 year old( once known as a “player”) actor, comedian, radio show host, Steve Harvey. Steve Harvey’s new book, “ Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man” is New York Time’s Best Seller.


Harvey reminds us that women are in charge of the relationship, and we always have the ball in our court. But somehow, women keep managing to give the man the control because women want to be accepted.

Harvey states that every man has a plan, and he started to write this book because of a relationship problem his daughter had. Harvey replies to his daughter,


“A woman has a right to know what a man’s plan is for her,” Harvey said. “If the plan he has with you doesn’t match up with the plan you have for yourself, you need to make some changes. Trust me, every man who meets you has a plan. Even that brother in church who comes up to you saying, ‘Praise the Lord!’ has a plan for you. You need to ask him what that plan is.”



He compares catching the best mate to fishing. He says ladies do not want to be thrown back again in the sea after being caught; they want to be taken home and cooked. Great analogy. So ladies raise your standards.

When I first saw this title I assumed he meant dress well, keep your knees together and obsess about pro sports.

Sounds like he has an interesting perspective, but I wouldn't get carried away with the idea that all men have plans for women. Most men don't even have plans for what they're going to eat for lunch. That's why when you ask them what they're thinking they can rarely answer. They're probably thinking about nothing more significant than on base percentage or possible counter strategies to the shotgun play.

Men like him might have plans for women. Players might have plans for women. But most men aren't players - they're just fans.
