    About this ebook

    The Manual will not tell you how to repair your car or your lawn mower, or how to hook up your stereo set. If you read The Manual, here is a glimpse of what you will get: the answers to a few questions and what you should do when a woman asks you Do I look fat in this dress? Answer her truthfully, even if the answer is yes. Tell her tactfully if her hair is a mess. There are other things this manual will do, and I must warn you, at times it will be lewd, crude, and downright rude. Men, this manual is especially for you. Women, please take a moment to decide if you wish to continue reading through.

    Author

    Terry Dennis

    The author is an ordinary person like you, who decided to sit down to write a line or two.  Okay, maybe a few, about some things that would enlighten you, or you already knew but need to review.  The author is not a doctor or a Ph.D. The author does not hold a psychology degree.  The author just sat down and went on a writing spree.  I guess by now you might think the author must be a little crazy.  Do you really care what city the author grew up in? Is that going to make us closer friends?  You will find out more of what the author is all about by picking up the author’s book and reading the pages within.  I could tell you I wrote my first play at the age of ten and then subjected it to all my friends, but what’s inside is much more interesting. If you would like to leave a comment or question for the author, you may email her at: mterry10@hotmail.com

      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS AND THANK YOUS

      First and foremost, I would like to acknowledge and thank my Father for His never-ending love, His Word, His wisdom, and most importantly, His Son.

      Secondly, I would like to thank The KOC who inspired half the title of this book. I would also like to thank Gary Eggers who inspired the other half.

      To Chris Thomas, thank you for your time, your talent and all your hard work. You are truly gifted cuz.

      To Denise Burgos, thank you for your friendship, your time and your opinions they are greatly appreciated.

      Many thanks go to Dick whom inspired a huge (no pun intended), contribution to the material contained in this book.

      And, last but certainly not least I would like to thank my family and close friends for all their love and support throughout the years (especially my sister, who has always been positive, always believed in me, and always been my number one fan) and accepting me for who I am despite my many flaws and idiosyncrasies. I would also like to give a special acknowledgement to JCT – No matter where I am in my life, I will always remember thee.

      Juan Pierre Reis, you are the air I breathe and I breathe thee deeply.

      With all my love, sincerity, and deepest care.

      ~TD~

      TO THE READER

      The information contained in this book represents the author’s beliefs and opinions only. Remember, each individual has his or her own unique situation or circumstance.

      Furthermore, the author assumes no responsibility for actions taken by the reader based upon the information obtained in this book. Use your own judgment.

      A WORD OF WARNING

      This is a book for men. It is written with men in mind. If you are not a man, you can still read this book. However, keep in mind that at times, it will be lewd, crude, and downright rude. Please take a moment to decide if you wish to continue reading through.

      With so many books out there giving women instructions on how to get and keep a man, I thought it was only fair to give the men a hand. After all, men are the ones who really could use a clue. Many of them seldom know how to please a woman or what to do. If you come across something in this book that you don’t understand or that does not apply to you, remember, for the next man, it may ring true. Don’t be insulted, don’t be angry, don’t be ashamed, just read, learn, and be happy, gentlemen!

      I am talking about men here, and let’s face it, all men think about is sex, sex, sex, more sex, food, and then more ways to get better sex. It is my belief that when women are getting sex as good as men do, they will be looking for more ways to get better sex too. Always remember, by first pleasing her, it will in turn please you. This book is designed to help men not only get better sex, but to aid them in how to give better sex and better understand women too.

      If you are not prepared to hear the cold, hard (no pun intended) facts, do not continue reading through. Please put this book down now and pick up another one; this one is not for you. For it will be explicit in language, in nature, and in detail too.

      THE POWER OF PENIS

      Although you hang out with Penis all day every day, Penis is not your friend. Penis has tremendous power. If you allow Penis, Penis will always win. You must continually fight the power of Penis.

      A little Penis will get you into a lot of trouble. A big Penis will get you into even worse. Bear with me a moment while I pop out some poetic, rhythmic verse.

      Penis will cause you to make poor decisions against your better judgment. Penis will lead you astray. Penis is so powerful, Penis will say, It’s okay, this is your world. Go ahead, sleep with your best friend’s girl.

      Penis will tell you, Jump right in, it’s no sin, it’s okay to sleep with her best friend. Penis will challenge you, Do it again. I dare you to sleep with, your own best friend. Yes, Penis knows he is a man.

      Penis will make you risk all that you have and took a lifetime to get. Penis will do this in a matter of mere minutes.

      Penis will wake you up in the morning with a salute. Penis will have you in the company of prostitutes.

      Penis will talk you into going into places that Penis knows don’t smell right! Penis will tell you, Man, it’s only for one night, put a Band-Aid over it and wrap it real tight.

      Penis will tell you, There is no time to think. Penis will have you washing your Penis off in her sink.

      Penis will tell you it is okay to sleep with your woman, her mother, her brother, her cousin, and close friend. Then go back and sleep with your woman again!

      Penis doesn’t care about you or your life. Penis will tell you, It’s okay, it’s all right, and go ahead, and I dare you to sleep with the boss’ wife.

      Penis will seldom discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, ancestry, national origin, age, pregnancy, or creed. Penis won’t even care about veteran status, citizenship status, marital status, and mental or physical disabilities.

      Yes, I know this list is rather long. What I am trying to get at is, Penis will continually steer you wrong. Penis’s motto is, Can’t we all just get it on?

      I repeat, YOU MUST CONTINUALLY FIGHT THE POWER OF PENIS!!!

      THE POWER OF VAGINA

      001.jpg

      The power of Vagina, oh shit! The power of Vagina is even stronger than the power of Penis. The power of Vagina will have you taking large sums of money out of your bank account real quick.

      The power of Vagina evens the score. The power of Vagina will have you doing ALL that Penis did, and much, much more.

      Vagina will make you act like a jerk. Vagina will make you late for work.

      Vagina will make you think, I am living large! Vagina will make you think I’m in charge! Vagina will make you quit your job.

      Vagina will make you lose all your friends. Vagina will make you go right out and get that same job back again.

      Vagina will make you go to your wife and tell her you are leaving her and
