Average customer review:Product Description
Whether a woman is a contractor, a stay-at-home mother, or a high-powered attorney, the suggestions in How to Be a Lady will cause others to think "Wow! She's got it all together!"
- If a lady is on a diet, she does not speak of it at the table
- A lady never eats a meal while behind the wheel of a car
- A lady makes it a point to know the names of the teams playing in the Super Bowl
The roles women play in society today are drastically different than they were 25 years ago, and some of the rules are different as well.
Patterned after the successful How to Be a Gentleman, How to Be a Lady is a practical book of etiquette that is not snobbish, boring or intimidating. It is designed for a new century by discussing such issues as how to dress for the workplace, the importance of knowing self defense, and how to tactfully ask for the sexual history of a person with whom a lady is considering an intimate relationship.

Wonderful but slightly incomplete..
This book has wonderful tips and ideas. What I love most about it is that they put the ideas in short "quote type sentences" so you can read just a couple and come back to it later with out missing a beat. The only downside is that some of the tips are unclear, e.g. "A lady knows when to drink through a straw.". But if you don't know when that is...not real helpful there. Other than that book is great!
Every lady should read this
In today's society women have been deluded into thinking immorality and sluttiness will get them the attention they desire. This book turns the tables on 'girls gone wild' and shows that femininity doesn't have to mean nudity. In fact being a lady can mean class and can mean being well spoken and people will still turn their heads when you walk into a room. In essence, you don't need to be a stripper to dress like a prostitute to get noticed. And this book is a wonderful start.

It's helpful LADY's common sense guide
this book helps me to start build up some lifetime manner. I read some of the review for being disappointed by the book about it is all about common sense that they heard thousand times. I still like this book and read all of them. Some of them I already knew, but some of them is new to me. Even though some of them I heard thousand times as well. I believe that written in words is totally different than the speaking the word. This book guide me the first step to be a real lady.
