Is Your Straight Man Gay Enough?: The Ultimate Renovation Guide

by Jason Anthony, Shipley Anthony, Jason Anthony

If Queer Eye for the Straight Guy has taught us anything, it's that women everywhere want their men to be a little more gay. Alas, the fab five can't knock down every man's door, and most women fear that the road from beer-swilling schlub to gallery-hopping Valentino is just too long and winding (and ladies, you know he won't ask for directions). Is Your Straight Man Gay Enough? is here to help. Nan Shipley and her gay best friend Jason Anthony take on straight-guy habits (crotch-scratching and air guitar), straight-guy style (he thinks dressing well means extra Thousand Island), and straight-guy home decor (Pleather and milk crates). Quick questionnaires identify problem areas, and straightforward advice helps women renovate their men. He can be more Sample Sale Saturday than Superbowl Sunday. He can cry at weddings and be nice to old ladies. He can trim his nose hairs, and still fix your leaky faucet. In short, he can be a little gay, all man, and a lot of fun.

HILARIOUS. I learned that my hubby is definitely straight (not that I doubted) and is open to change. Not everything suggested, but enough. He now only owns ONE pair of pleated pants, and they are for emergencies only. :) I just wish he'd let me do the decorating.

Dawson bought me this book right before I left for California. It was pretty funny but also pretty much stated that if you want your man to change anything about his life, just bribe him with sex or snacks.

Gladly, my man passed with flying colors.
