Synopsis

Having previously set out her "surrendering" principles for wives (and ruffling the feathers of feminists), Laura Doyle now tackles the single girl and shows how to get used to surrendering while preparing yourself for your man to propose. Doyle encourages you to re-evaluate your attitudes towards dating and marriage as the first step, confronting your desire for a mate and acknowledging your own fear of commitment. Once this is established, she takes you through the actual date with some good old-fashioned tips on flirting and on your code of conduct. So once you have your man, how do you hold him? Well, Laura advises that you start relinquishing control to avoid having to change later. Unless of course you have chosen an "incomplete" man - one who watches "Oprah" and isn't hugely interested in sports, cars and guitars. If this is the case, you should probably say "goodbye". "The Surrendered Girl" is wholly outrageous and politically incorrect; nevertheless, the principles are honest and insightful, in the process of seeking a happy relationship of mutual trust, love and adoration.
