That the value of a woman is her looks, and that her looks are yours to judge.
In his exciting new expert’s dating guide, 9 year old Alec Grevin shows us not only that he has the intricacies of relationships down, but also that misogyny is something cute and adorable to be chuckled at and laughed off as boyish play.
The fourth-grader from Castle Rock, Colo., advises Lothario wannabes to stop showing off, go easy on the compliments to avoid looking desperate – and be wary of “pretty girls.”
“It is easy to spot pretty girls because they have big earrings, fancy dresses and all the jewelry,” he writes in Chapter Three.
“Pretty girls are like cars that need a lot of oil.”
He advises, “The best choice for most boys is a regular girl. Remember, some pretty girls are coldhearted when it comes to boys. Don’t let them get to you.”
Charming.
But at least he is getting a bookdeal two book deals out of it.
Way to go to this boy’s parents, who have failed to teach him how to treat people fairly and respect women.
Someone has been playing way too many oldies at home (and the video makes me chuckle, and the only one to this song that didn’t make me want to vomit, but it immediately came to mind when I read about this boy’s book).

Oh, apparently he has a follow-up sure to be hit, How to Talk to Moms, which I am sure is going to be full of respectful and charming tidbits about dealing w/ women as people, and not pawns to be manipulated.
