A woman's perspective of the modern Don Juan,
By
This review is from: The Joy of Letting Women Down: Secretss of the Worshipped Male (Hardcover)
It's rare that a woman will write about what really goes on in the hearts and minds of women when it comes to men and relationships. Things that some women won't even admit to themselves are openly discussed in these pages. The main concept is that of the worshipped male, and the pattern of behaviour that leads women to become addicted to this male archetype. Natalie breaks all men down into two categories-- worshippable males and reliable males--then explores the differences, and why woman, despite their best judgment, always fall for the former, but only settle for the latter. Though candid, there was a tinge of bitterness in each paragraph, giving me the impression that this may be a less-than-objective view of the topic; however, what study of male-female relationships can ever really be totally unbiased when all studies are done by members of either one gender or the other? What did I walk away with after reading this book? I know for some, the concepts discussed will be eye-opening, to put it mildly, while others, especially worshipped males (whether they know that's what they are or not) will find much of it painfully obvious. For me, it triggered a lot of introspection. Clearly, many "worshipped males" exhibit destructive behaviour. Yet, there are aspects of the worshipped male that women find irrestible and addictive. Is it possible to bridge these two archetypes and become the "mostly worshipped, somewhat-reliable male", thus leading a semi-normal life?
