内容简介 Book DescriptionThe Doctor Is In . . . Again!
Did the mega-bestselling Why Do Men Have Nipples? exhaust your curiosity about stuff odd, icky, kinky, noxious, libidinous, or just plain embarrassing? No, you say? Well, good, because the doctor and his able-bodied buddy are in! Again! Mark Leyner and Billy Goldberg, M.D., now take on the differences between the sexes—those burning questions like Why doesn’t my husband ever listen? or Why does my wife ALWAYS have to pee? And of course, Why do men fall asleep after sex?, plus plenty of others to keep you fully informed.
Full of smart and funny answers to an onslaught of new questions, all in a do-ask-we’ll-tell spirit that entertain and teaches you something at the same time, Why Do Men Fall Asleep After Sex? offers the real lowdown on everything everyone wants to know about all things anatomical, medical, sexual, nutritional, animal, and mineral, but would only ask a physician after a few too many, like:
? Why do you have a “bionic” sense of smell when you’re pregnant?
? Does peeing in the shower cure athlete’s foot?
? Is a dog’s mouth clean?
? Can you breastfeed with fake boobs?
? Does thumb sucking cause buckteeth?
? Do your eyebrows grow back if shaved?
Bigger, funnier, and better than ever, Why Do Men Fall Asleep After Sex? proves that in the battle of the sexes, as in most things, a little Q&A is a safe, effective, minimally invasive remedy.
Amazon.comThe authors of what is now casually referred to as "that nipple book" are back, with more answers to questions "you'd only ask a doctor after your third whiskey sour." Smart, funny, and informative, Why Do Men Fall Asleep After Sex offers answers to questions you may be too embarrassed to ask, like "Does peeing in the shower cure athlete's foot?" and "Can you breastfeed with fake boobs?" We had the opportunity to ask authors Mark Leyner and Billy Goldberg a few questions of our own--read their responses below.
From Publishers WeeklyThe sequel to 2005's surprise bestseller Why Do Mean Have Nipples?, the latest from writer-physician duo Leyner and Goldberg is immensely readable and educational, but it's also crude and predictable. Like the first volume, this book is set up in a Q&A format, pursuing wisdom both odd ("Do animals commit suicide?") and impolite ("Why do your eyes water when you poop?"). Unfortunately, the hit-or-miss formula is heavier on the misses this time around; many of the questions read like leftovers or magazine filler ("Can you get herpes from a hot tub?" "Why can we still not cure the common cold?" "Why do your ears pop on an airplane?"), while others serve only to debunk urban legends ("Do copper bracelets help with rheumatism?" "Is it true that you cannot die in a dream?"). The strange, quasi-fictitious chapter introductions return, as do transcripts of instant-message exchanges between Leyner and Goldberg, providing a break from the call-and-response format and serving to broaden the lovable doofus personalities of the writers; they also serve to erode the credibility of the authors, whose writing style-rife with bathroom humor and always searching for a punch line-may put off some readers. Though not for everyone, this should make an ideal gift book for fans of the first volume, or any other wiseacres on your list.
From The Washington Post's Book World/washingtonpost.comWhy Do Men Fall Asleep After Sex? More Questions You'd Only Ask a Doctor After Your Third Whiskey Sour, by Mark Leyner and Billy Goldberg (Three Rivers; paperback, $13.95) is a follow-up to another bibulous title by the same pair, Why Do Men Have Nipples? Hundreds of Questions You'd Only Ask a Doctor After Your Third Martini. All of which raises further questions, such as What Kinda Questions Do Beer-Drinkers Ask Their Doctors? Or Teetotalers, for that matter?
But those last are meta-questions, as it were. Turning to Leyner and Goldberg's actual doctor-directed queries, here's a good one: "Can You Breastfeed with Nipple Piercing?" Basically, the answer is yes, although the authors register a caution: "It is hard to imagine a pierced mother not removing the nipple ring prior to breast feeding, but alas, some insist on keeping themselves festooned despite recommendations to the contrary."
Sometimes the authors (Leyner is a novelist, Goldberg an M.D.) begin an answer with a bang. To the question "Can Animals Be Gay?" they reply, "Yes they can!" Elsewhere they take a more circuitous route. After posing the question "Is Heading a Soccer Ball Dangerous?" -- which of course should be updated to "Is Head-Butting a Soccer Opponent Dangerous?" -- they expatiate on boxing injuries and other soccer-induced head traumas before finally taking a judicious stance: "It is thought that the acceleration of the head caused by heading a soccer ball is not great enough to cause a concussion."
As for why men fall asleep after sex, who cares? Isn't the more alarming problem with the ones who fall asleep before sex?
