The rules pertain to online dating for married people in the Anglo-Saxon puritan culture. It seems to be very rewarding for the ladies interested in extra marital affairs as compared with the males as the ratio seems to be as high as ten to one in their favour. So the book comes as a major dampener for males who are looking for some sexual adventures on the side. I loved the format of the book as unlike many sociological books which are dry and difficult to go through, this one kept me intrigued with lots of real world stories and profound deductions.

You can fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time, but it is impossible to fool all the people all of the time. So careful when you embark on this risky adventure please…..
