It was a fascinating book. I like that they used illustrations, including photos of well-known actors and politicians. And then I got to the parts about glasses and makeup. They advise you to take your glasses off when you speak and put them back on to listen. This is assuming you are a vain attention-monger who wears glasses JUST to be attractive. Whereas if I take them off I can't see you. And I take offense to the idea that women who do not wear makeup are perceived as having poorer personal skills. That's a sexist remark if ever I heard one! Just because I don't smother my face in chemicals doesn't make me less capable of having good interpersonal skills.
