About this listen
This program is read by the author.
From New Yorker and Onion writer and comedian Blythe Roberson, How to Date Men When You Hate Men is a comedy philosophy audiobook aimed at interrogating what it means to date men within the trappings of modern society.
Blythe Roberson’s sharp observational humor is met by her openhearted willingness to revel in the ugliest warts and shimmering highs of choosing to live our lives among other humans. She collects her crushes like ill-cared-for pets, skewers her own suspect decisions, and assures listeners that any date you can mess up, she can top tenfold. And really, was that date even a date in the first place?
With sections like: Real Interviews with Men About Whether or Not It Was a Date; Good Flirts That Work; Bad Flirts That Do Not Work; and Definitive Proof That Tom Hanks Is the Villain of You’ve Got Mail, How to Date Men When You Hate Men is a one-stop shop for dating advice when you love men but don't like them.
Early Praise for How to Date Men When You Hate Men:
"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)
"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 best-selling author of You Can't Touch My Hair)

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

It was interesting and overall a good listen.
I liked this book and in summary, it had some challenges but I can easily overlook them because of how reassuring it was to listen to a women talk about the crumbling structure of today's "dating" culture.

Great title, unreliable author
I obviously picked up this book because of its title and immediately felt connected with the author, especially when the author mentioned Fun Dip. I am definitely the target audience. However, my interest in her opinion changed once she acknowledged she'd never been in a proper relationship and while I could relate to a lot of what she had to say, I found it got repetitive and not very enlightening. I can't imagine spending that much time wondering whether an interaction counts as a date or not. I'll admit, I also hoped the author would give better perspective on dating men in a world and society when it seems to be more difficult than ever to want to. Some great points likely better for an essay rather than a novel.
