      Synopsis

      Nerve's Guide to Sex Etiquette for Ladies and Gentlemen is committed to saving readers from a lifetime of sexual faux-pas. From one-night stands to dirty talk and much more this outrageously helpful handbook includes hints such as:

      € When booty-calling an ex, the dumpee must be the initiator the first two times. After that, it's considered polite for the dumper to initiate so the dumpee doesn't feel doubly pathetic.

      € On a one-night stand, you may make a stealth exit from your partner's bed, but it is gauche to request that your partner vacate before daylight.

      € A civilized lady or gentleman always has a guest toothbrush handy, still in its packaging, just in case a guest requests one. However, only vulgarians keep an entire drawer of them for guests to "pick their favorite color."

      Mixing witty "pearls of wisdom," hilarious sidebars, and essential advice, Em and Lo deliver the practical handbook of bedside manners for singles and devoted couples in the new millennium.

      August 21, 2004: Ten years ago, 'the rules' was the book to be passed around and talked about by the twenty-something generation. Nerve's guide is definetly the new book to do this with. Some etiquette relevant, some just plain funny, and some extremly notweworthy; this boko can be a great handbook for anyone in the dating world. It can also be a noteworthy talking piece when having a dinner party among friends. Overall, a great gift book or coffee table book to have lying around.
