Listened in the car. Don't have kids with you. Funny and informative.

Obviously the companion piece to "Why Do Men Have Nipples?" it's equally as entertaining and informative.

How I Heard About It: I've randomly seen its predecessor, "Why Do Men Have Nipples?" and was slightly interested. It wasn't until I receieved this book as a gift that I really got into it.
How I Procured It: My friend Richard gave it to me for my birthday, and promptly embarrassed me in front of all my dinner guests.
Type: Humor/Facty sort of book/Medical Reference?
Ratings: Story/Content: 4/5 Writing: 3/5
Who would I recommend it to? Anyone who's ever asked those weird health questions, like "Will a watermelon seed really grow in your stomach?" and "What is the hangy-ball thing in the back of your throat for?"
Did it remind me of anything? The IM sections reminded me of some of the conversations I've had with friends, although we're not as witty as they are.
Would I read it again? Sure, it's an entertaining, brain-numbing book. I love it.
Comments: Some of the IM passages get a little hard to follow, but the introductions about their so-called mental health "practice" are hularious. Like I said, this isn't a hard book to read. It's a beach-read. Even the scientific, medical parts are easy to get through, and funny at that.

First off, this is not a book I would normally read. The hubby picked it out and so I thought why not? I struggled to get thru this book. There were a few parts that I thought were funny but I felt like it read like a health book written by 2 high school/college frat boys. I almost gave up on it. I give it 2 points because there was a slight few parts that I laughed at.

This was entertaining. There were some bits that made me laugh out loud, and there were some bits that made me think 'huh?' but most of it was ok. There were a few answers that were a little too scientific to be interesting, but overall an ok 'filler' read. Nothing spectacular.

Very cute and funny, but more of something you flip through real quick while you're bored than a concentrated, interesting read.

A quick and interesting read, but the “banter” opening up and closing chapters was annoying and seems to only be there to pad the length of the book.

I didn't love this one as much as the original, perhaps because this was a bit longer and slightly more tedious. I definitely didn't enjoy the longer introductions to each chapter, though I liked the greater variety of chapters. Once again, there were some things in here I already knew and others I learned. Still an enjoyable read and good for some useless knowledge and a laugh.
