The title of this book immediately caught my attention. I laughed and then thought to myself whether or not this was true. I was also intrigued by the words "are you too nice?" on the back cover. This book is clear that the term bitch does not mean a nasty or angry or bitter woman. In the context of the book, a bitch is a woman who stands up for herself and does not let a man define her self worth. There are lots of examples in the book of how a nice girl will go out of her way for a man who is mistreating her while a bitchy woman will call the man out on his behavior and then distance herself. A tip I loved was that men do not respond as well to words as they do to no contact. If a guy is not giving a woman 100%, it does the woman no good to nag or whine or dress up or cook him extra food. What the woman needs to do is go out and live her life without him. The bitchy woman does not have a fear of being alone. The nice woman will fear losing a second rate male and will thus exhaust herself while trying to make a relationship work. I also liked how this book emphasized the importance of a man pursuing a woman. A woman constantly calling a man or making plans with him will push a guy away. Let the guy do the chasing. There are plenty of other tips in this book, and I highly recommend it for any woman who has ever settled for second best at the expense of being "too nice".
