Book Cover & Preview Text
The book is a dedicated investigation of negative female traits and how “those women” cause immeasurable pain to others without suffering recrimination from society for their anti-social behavior. The book will cause a fire storm by feminists who have lost their way on the road to demanding equal rights for all women and by “those women” who believe that they should be celebrated as entitled American women and that they have every right to continue their flagrant behaviors.
“Those women” are the same mean girls that many of us encountered in middle and high school corridors. Those women are the women who set standards for other women, such as what to wear, who to date and even something as mundane as how one’s house should be cleaned. These women are masters at demeaning other women: In middle school a oft common scenario plays out: A girl from the popular girl clique is waiting to be picked-up after school. A non-popular girl stands nearby also waiting to be picked-up. The popular girl looks at the non-popular girls and sighs heavily: “You’re so lucky! I mean, you just don’t know how difficult it is to be me! I mean, being popular and all is just so much work!” The one-sided conversation ends with the popular one by shaking her luxurious head of hair in an act of dismissal as she settles back into her typical mode of non-communication with a lesser being.
But this type of ‘mean woman’ (hereinafter to be referred to as goddesses) behavior doesn’t end in middle school, high school and even college. This is classic, unmasked signature behavior of the goddess: typically manipulative, always insensitive, backstabbing behavior designed to undermine the confidence of other women and awhile simultaneously ensuring the complete emotional domination of the men in their lives.

About the Book
Everyone remembers that "mean girl" from high school - she was gorgeous, perfectly proportioned, perfectly poised, and perfectly nasty to the rest of us.What most women know but rarely speak about is that the mean girls in high school grow-up to become mean women. While the battlegrounds used to be the school cafeteria or the gym, we grow-up to face mean women at the supermarket, the soccer field, PTA meetings and office parties. The grown-up mean girl may look like a goddess on the surface, but underneath all the layers of expertly applied make-up, designer clothes and disingenuous smile lies a beast lurking, always at the ready to slice and dice other women's self-esteem and dreams. Ten Things I Still Hate About Those Women gives a voice to the rest of womankind and empowers each of us to fight back against the goddess in our midst.
