About the book
Just when you thought there was nothing left to say about dating, Desperate Housewives darling Felicity Huffman and her best friend since college, Patty Wolff, come up with The Book on boyfriend etiquette, the all-in-one guide that answers the question: What happens when he is that into you? A cheat sheet on how to succeed in love without really lying, The Practical Handbook for the Boyfriend navigates the often impenetrable terrain of relationships and offers advice on a diverse range of issues, such as: Who decides when you become a boyfriend—she does. Daily aggravations—e.g. I hate how you chew. What's sexy (boxer shorts and backrubs), and what's not (toupees and toenail clippings). Sex toys, erogenous zones, and other things that go bump—and grind!—in the night. An insider's look at the difference between guy-logic and girl-behavior, The Practical Handbook for the Boyfriend takes it shape from the relationships it hopes to demystify, moving from the first date, to the first kiss, from make-up sex to the rebound date. This is the book that women will want to buy to accidentally-on-purpose leave at their boyfriend's place.
