Thanks for your help in making The Sigma Male a runaway success. Based on countless coaching sessions with the readers and your feedback, this updated edition is available now.

Countless books promise to save your marriage, but none recognizes the actual cause of marital strife. As a result, Modern Men are misinformed about what women really want. Without an understanding of the true problem, it is impossible to implement a solution.

The Sigma Male Reveals:

· Why you can't make your wife happy, no matter how hard you try

· The real reason your wife is unhappy and why she can't explain it to you

· Why it's not your job to make your wife happy and what your real duty is

· Why your marriage problems are the same as everyone else's

· The single, common need that men and women share

· Why neither Alpha nor Modern Men can provide what women want

· The simple skillset that helps you become what your wife really wants.

This is not even the correct defintion of A sigma male at all. SAVE YOUR MONEY MEN!

Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2019

Verified Purchase

This book is written completely around the wrong definition of Sigma Male.

Any and Every available source on google describes a combination of a man that Is neither Alpha male, nor beta male, and theoretically has both of the best traits.

However, the author has written about something else entirely, and merely titled the book "The Sigma Male."

The author ignores all Google search confirmed traits about sigma males, listed over several sites, and then proceeds to write a book that defines a "sigma male" as someone who exists solely to solve each and every one of their significant others problems, and then talks about problem solving in great detail. During the entirety of the book, the author makes zero reference whatsoever to the traits of the sigma as outlined and defined by Google.

I think the term for this is bait and switch.

If you google "Sigma Male" , you can get a quick idea of what a Sigma Male is, and you can read some blogs and find what I say to be true.

https://hackspirit.com/sigma-male-11-things-they-do-and-how-you-can-become-one-too/
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=sigma%20male
https://www.aconsciousrethink.com/9304/sigma-males/

This is a relationship book for men that priorities their mates wants and desires, and looks for ways to prevent and protect their mates from problems before they even happen, And champions the cause the man following this advice look to require zero reward, recognition or compensation. To be a male that does all of this out of pure sense of duty.

This book has nothing to do with the Sigma Male as define by any available google search.

It seems wholly like a reskinned relationship book on a severely different topic.

I am extremely disappointed, because the subject matter of the book does not match the title at all.

This is extreme miscommunication at best, Bait and switch at worst. Buyer beware!

A relationship book for men that's actually applicable

Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2014

Verified Purchase

This book is a quick read, a couple of hours at most. Throughout, the content stays relatively light and it's a fast paced read. It's well-written; short paragraphs; a few simple diagrams and illustrations, and a couple of pretty funny cartoons. It begins with a bit of historical background to explain why relationships fail and then lays out a solution to the problem. The remainder of the book uses real-life examples to explain the "fix" in detail.

The author does a good job of balancing two seemingly incompatible worlds: one where a man dominates and one where he is kind and understanding. Along those lines, this is the first "relationship" book I've read that actually feels like it was written for men. It uses common sense logic, although I can tell the author has done his homework. There are footnotes and references in the back (if you care about that sort of thing). The book has a first-person voice and has a very informal man-to-man feel to it.

At first glance the book seems to be very politically incorrect. It makes references to dominant male behavior and is in support of traditional roles. Note: AT FIRST GLANCE. In reality, it is very pro-women but it makes it clear that there are still things in relationships that should be treated as masculine and feminine. There's a lot to like and respect in that.

I highly recommend this book. My relationship was never bad but after reading this book I've noticed some things I can definitely improve on. It's not a silver bullet quick-fix solution, but has ideas that are immediately applicable.

Note: The book makes reference to a free online assessment, but when I went to the website I couldn't find it. They responded to my email and let me know that they're still de-bugging it. They took my email and told me they would send me the link as soon as it's ready.

Answer the big question.

Answers that big question that we all have felt and thought. "why is this not working?", "why is this so difficult". We go round and round and get absolutely nowhere with our significant other when we talk or fight about what we are feeling and why. Find out why when you read this book. Its simple and you'll know right away its exactly right.

Every Man Should Read This Book

Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2015

Verified Purchase

An excellent book that is written in a clear, concise fashion. It offers a lot of perspective for men on the predicament we face with masculinity in a modern age. How can we be sensitive to a woman, empower her, recognize her competence, and still offer the protection she desires? This book clarifies these issues and more revealing what women are seeking in a man. Furthermore, it explains how men can establish an intimate, fulfilling relationship by fulfilling their innate role as a protector. The text is well researched and presented in a conversational voice. An easy read that offers much more than the price of admission.

It give a clear message about what she really wants. But its not about what you really wamt

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2018

I will not slay the mental, physical or made up "dragons" of an already privaledged memember of society. If life is too much for her to take on then they should quit lying about equal status. Its a waste of time and is silly. Just say no

I love this book

Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2015

I love this book. As someone who's had a terrible relationship, I recognize principles described in this book in a way I've never heard before that line up with what I feel is true about relationships and the masculine and feminine powers. And what women need from men as well as what a man needs from a woman. As I was reading I couldn't help but picture myself being in a relationship with the type of man described (the sigma male) and feeling how deeply satisfied and loved I'd feel. Like it or not there is a masculine energy and a feminine energy (this is also at work in same sex partnerships) and a way for them to play together in a spectacularly wonderful way that is described in this book.
