Open Her: Activate 7 Masculine Powers to Arouse Your Woman's Love & Desire

Quite honestly, the whole theme of the book is to kneel before women in your own way as you fit into the archetypes. There... saved you some money and time reading brain dead feminist propaganda aimed at weak minded betas. You can thank me later. There is nothing here of note, except an over all theme of "give women the frame of your life, and get what she decides you deserve". This book declares all women should be treated like a Disney princess and all men should provide them the ego boosts to feed their dangerously narcissistic fantasies. Why? Because that is what men are made to do, and women are special... that's why.She waxes poetic for pages on pages about how masculinity is supposed to prop up femininity. If you buy this tripe, get ready for flowery antidotes like... Femininity is a wild strong river, running fast and free where as Masculinity is the banks that channels the strength of women.... Laughable! Femininity never explored new lands, built great empires, sailed oceans or aspired to go to the moon. Masculinity has and always been the drive and motion that propels our species to greatness, whereas femininity has been the force that has kept the masculine focused on making life better and more comfortable in which to raise children. She flips everything so to make men to be the natural servants of women. This woman wouldn't know a truly masculine man even if he impregnated her. Each archetypes she lists is only put into the context on how that archetypes (after proper indoctrination and made a better beta) can give women what they want. Guys, follow this stuff at your own risk! It is propaganda to make you a better Beta. In real world application, it is a recipe to get you disrespected, cheated on, cucked, and "friend zoned". This book is a prime example why you should never take advice from women.Be a man... conquer lands and build empires! Women aren't so important that you must give your frame and make her the focus. She should complement your life not be your life. If she isn't down for your vision or direction... screw her, women aren't rare.

FAR BETTER than a hundred superficial self-help books. You'll find true wisdom in OPEN HER. As I read it, I could feel Brody's many truths, striking resonant chords in the archives of my memory. By viewing my past through these male archetypes, I could clearly see the patterns that happened over and over, even with my long-ago "girl troubles."Amazed am I. And humbled...but also delighted that such profound, practical insights into the deep masculine could be expressed so beautifully, with so much love & wisdom...BY A WOMAN. Thank you SO much, Karen Brody, for loving men and masculinity enough to pursue this work. Good will toward men is rare these days...and so are gifted writers like you. My only regret: I wish I could've read this 30 years ago. My life would've been so much happier.ONE QUESTION: we see "your woman" so often in the book...but for the sake of single men (like me) I must ask: will these practices HELP US to ATTRACT A WOMAN and build a thriving relationship, using these awesome archetypal energies? ("Well, duh," he says. "No doubt!")I can see how conscious use of these archetypes would be a huge help during dating, especially on first dates. I already surmise: 1.) be fully present and truly SEE the woman 2.) offer sincere, specific, credible compliments 3.) have a good date plan, take charge and execute smoothly, but be thoughtful, considerate & courteous 4.) take her somewhere special (maybe amazing) that she might not go herself 5.) be impeccable with my word and build trust with every step 6.) OWN my sexuality and feel it, but don't push it; 7.) be confident on the inside, kind and peaceful on the outside 8.) employ my meditation skills to hold a deep inner peace, at appropriate times, and 9.) LISTEN to her with 100% focus, don't interrupt, but ask open-ended questions to draw her out further...and prove I'm truly interested. All of this gives me much-needed confidence. Since my wife died several years ago and now, at age 63, the idea of dating again is VERY intimidating.SUMMARY: Gentlemen, this book will teach you something amazing. The very best way to love a woman--and ensure a happy life together--is to stay absolutely true to your deep, masculine nature. To live by this truth is the greatest gift you can give to the woman you love. Ladies, if you want your man to understand you better, this is the best, most practical book I've ever read on the subject (and I've read a LOT of books.)To the author: my deepest thanks for including the term "warrior" as a positive, empowered dimension of the deep masculine. As a Vietnam vet who was shamed and vilified for my service for decades (often by the liberal, peace-loving feminists I was trying to meet & date) your keeping faith with this honorable term...means more to me than I can say. Your work helps to make the world a better place for all of us.

If you are a pickup artist, you will be disappointed with "Open Her." In spite of the title and cover, this is not about manipulating women; it is about becoming a better person. This is the best book on relationships that I have ever read. The book is somewhat spiritual and the opposite of the pickup culture. Learn to be compassionate. Don't see women as sex objects. Be honest. Be strong, like a warrior, yet sensitive enough to express your feelings. Keep your word. This is the type of information that a mother would want her son to live by.

Shares similar notes to King, warrior, magician, lover but framed differently.I found it to a beneficial refresher on what traits you can enhance in yourself that will be beneficial to your partner. However I was disappointed that so many of the examples and framing dealt with the early parts of a relationship.Relationships are not difficult early on; when they are new and exciting. The difficulty comes later on, and I had hoped for more insight into how the various traits the author lists would come into play much later into a relationship when the real challenges occur.

This book works. As I read it, every relationship experience I have ever had became more clear: what went wrong (or right) and why, how it might have been if... The result is growing empowerment towards deeper, more fulfilling relationships, both existing and new.Although written from the perspective of how a man can better understand both himself and his woman, I'm sure this book will also be equally enlightening for women. Many books about relationships begin with a good idea then soon fizzle out. This one just gets better and better, all the way to the end. Definitely one to read again and again...The author generously shares her own intimate experience, along with what she has learned from decades of successful relationship coaching. Hence, there is a deep authenticity rooted in the real world that we all live in. Karen Brody reveals to us a clear path towards making it a much more fulfilling world, fir ourselves and for those we love.

I started reading the book about 2 years ago and then got distracted. I've recently become aware that I'd started telling myself the lie that I was rubbish at all things sexual and yet deep within I know that it's about being 'opened' although I'm unable to be vulnerable enough to vocalise it. For some reason I picked up where I left off and I now have a better understanding. Thank you Karen for the book.

A friend recommended this book to me and despite it being a relationship book aimed at men, I found I learned so much from this book about the kind of man I would like so from that perspective I would really recommend it to other women as well as to men. On many levels I loved this book. The content was powerful and profound. It was so refreshing to read a book that gives assistance to men on how to in a sense open and engage a woman on a romantic level. It increased my own self awareness. The book is beautifully written and Karen uses her own life experiences really well, so her message is easy to understand / access. I am a big fan of case studies / analogies.

Still reading but has some interesting ideas.

A fantastic book for both men and women to read. A novel and well written approach to male understanding of himself and how it would affect a woman or the women around him. She has excellent experience and insight.
