Promotional Details

"With biting wit, Roberson explores the dynamics of heterosexual dating in the age of #MeToo." — The New York Times

"This is a perfect book for women of all ages who have found that, despite their best efforts, dating men rarely works out in their favor." — Publishers Weekly

"Roberson’s achievement in remaining funny while excavating her pain is just straightforwardly heroic." — The New Republic

"When too many men are monopolizing the headlines with their reprehensible behavior, Roberson takes a closer look at the system that breeds and normalizes this bad behavior, and guides us through the perils of dating — from crushes to break-ups — with a healthy dose of heart, humor, and feminism." — PAPER Magazine

"How To Date Men When You Hate Men is an incredibly funny read that was surely not written when Blythe was supposed to be working for me." - Stephen Colbert

“I’m going to be that person in their 30s who says something about someone in their 20s as if I am so removed from that time period: if you are in your 20s, most things make no sense, but thank sweet baby Jesus that Blythe Roberson’s How to Date Men When You Hate Men exists, and it’s something I wish I had during that time. Funny, sharp, and feminist fun in a way we’re led to believe isn’t possible. You’ll have a blast reading this and then date...or not date anyone because you are living your best single life with new best friend Roberson by your side.” - Phoebe Robinson, New York Times bestselling author of You Can't Touch My Hair

"Men oppress us; we also want to smooch them. Blythe manages to not only laugh at the pain of holding these two truths at once, but to find meaning, inspiration and empowerment in it. I’ve brought this book up in 1,000 conversations since I read it." - Hallie Bateman, illustrator of What to Do When I'm Gone

"This book is so funny and insightful, and it makes us both so glad we're married to each other and forever exempt from dating men!" - Maris Kreizman, author of Slaughterhouse 90210, and Josh Gondelman, author of Nice Try

Overall rating: 3.5 / 5 from 2 reviews.

Reviews

Knew it wasn't for me when she wrote ""Lourde tweeted about it""

"If i would of known I could write a list of all the guys I have ""dated"" and turn it into a book and sell it I would have done that a long time ago because it seems like that is all this is."

C G. (3/5)

I bought the book for the title. It’s sharp and feminist, but theses essays are way less provocative, just a funny read. It feels like a conversation with friends about our dating life

"This essay is really funny written with anecdotes and stories about what it means to date under the patriarchy, but it lack the theory to explain what we go through. Great part about You’ve got mail and why Tom Hanks was the real villain."
