"I'll call you."
"I love you."
"I'll be home in twenty minutes."
"No, I don't think your thighs are too big." From first date deceptions to marital dishonesty to last ditch efforts to evade detection, 101 Lies Men Tell Women captures the extraordinarily diverse lies that invade male/female relationships and destroy trust. What do men tend to lie about? And why do they feel the need to lie? Dr. Dory Hollander offers rare insight into these lies and the reasons men tell them. Based on the often stunning findings of her research, Dr. Hollander also shows why women are so vulnerable to certain types of lies, but not to others, while helping the listener to understand the dynamics of dishonesty. We learn how men use the lie as a means of both attracting and distancing themselves from the women in their lives, and how this affects the women who love them. Filled with highly amusing as well as emotionally wrenching stories from the men and women in Dr. Hollander's study, 101 Lies Men Tell Women both entertains and instructs. This is an essential guide and self-defense manual for women who, until now, have had little understanding of, and even less protection against the well-told lie.

Summary: Pre requisite For Gold Diggers
Comment: women and men are Tail tellers some can do the job better than others.
I defiantly recommend this book for future gold diggers.
They have the need to know everything about men.. so they can dig very deep..
I'm not talking emotions.
its seems that the author has great dislike for men
If you are looking for help to understand men... this is not the book for you

Summary: It's called limited space
Comment: As a currently, and very happily, married woman, I found this book quite helpful. Does it have a slant? Well of course it does. Writing a book about the top 101 lies women tell to men would be another whole book, and it's a book I'd like to see if it was written in the same manner. However, this book had a specific, clearly stated purpose, and it held to that purpose. In addition, because of the scope the book covered in depth, it helped me explain what I thought about some of my mate's behaviour in concrete terms, when before I had only fuzzy impressions of why his shutting me out so he could "be responsible" hurt. The author does not hate men, she hates lying in general and the hurt lying causes specifically. Reading through it can help head off serious problems before they start, and ending the relationship is not always the recommended course the author suggests. Many times, honesty about the problem and what is going on is enough, and this book provides good, solid methods for beginning that conversation.
And as for the idea that people, men and women alike, don't lie about STD's, ha. I am a pharmacy technician, and I can't tell you how many patients I've had who got an STD from an unfaithful and dishonest lover. There is a gentleman of my acquaintance who is currently dying of AIDS because his lover neglected to mention an HIV positive test for over a year. Even one out of twenty lovers who lie about this is enough to kill you. Don't take the chance.

Summary: Well, SOMEONE is a Bitter Betty!
Comment: I saw this in Border's tonight, and read a chapter...or, should I say, I read a bit here and there. The bile started to rise in my throat, and I had to put it down.
This book is disgusting on lots of levels. Look at her list of lies, first off. Gee, let's equate "I'll call you." to lying about "I tested HIV negative." First of all...WHAT?!? These aren't even close to being on the same level. Secondly, someone would have to be on a level of depravity that most women will never even encounter to lie about a lethal illness. Third, people who knowingly spread the disease have been convicted in court, or have been ordered to pay substantial sums to victims. In other words, it's a huge no-no, and most men wouldn't dream of doing that.
Women are all victims, and men are ALL liars. Women don't lie. Men do. And we know this because Madonna said it in the Emmy-winning film, "Body of Evidence" (chortle). You should worry about every word from your man's mouth, because none of it is true. If you're in a relationship with a married man...poor you! He's lying that he'll leave his wifey. We don't know what we're doing as we girls play the game of love- but, you'd better believe that we will be constantly lied to, since we're all stupid.
All the good reviews here are coming from women who have a lot of hate and bitterness in their hearts. This is a great book if you have issues that you don't want to deal with, since you can just pick and chose things to be mad at so that you can bounce when the time comes.
Yes, men are different. That doesn't mean that they're on some sort of mission to make life a living hell for every woman. Personally, I believe in projecting a loving, kind, and friendly air...and I meet guys. The guys I do meet sometimes are acting stupid or shady, but...gee...I DEAL WITH IT. I talk it out. Things may work out. They might not. I dropped the "MEN SUCK!" act about a year ago, and it's made a difference in the quality of men that I'm meeting. I'm still not married, and haven't found the perfect match yet, but I know it's out there, and I have an open, friendly heart- along with a sharp brain and good intuition so that I don't get screwed.
Yeah, buy this book if you want to put out the exact right energy to attract liars and cheats. Takes one to know one, after all!

Summary: People Lie ... Get that
Comment: The truth is ... we all lie. The trick is deciphering when the lies are too much and the degree of maliciousness behind them. No one can make someone tell the truth ... we are only responsible for ourselves ... but we can do our due diligence to spot selfish lies as fast as possible - and avert disaster.

Summary: Details and insights
Comment: The book is filled with stories and detailed interpretations of how lying by men to women works. It is not driven by "hate" of men, as "A Reader" suggests, but by the desire to reveal and understand. The men emerge (almost) as much as victims of their lies as the women.
