About this book
Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl - A Woman's Guide to Holding Her Own in a Relationship is a self-help book by Sherry Argov. In the book, Argov defines a "bitch" as "an empowered woman who derives tremendous strength from the ability to be an independent thinker, particularly in a world that still teaches women to be self-abnegating. This woman doesn't live someone else's standards, only her own." Why Men Love Bitches has been translated into 30 languages. It is followed by Argov's 2006 book, Why Men Marry Bitches. Both books are New York Times Bestsellers. Why Men Love Bitches was on the Los Angeles Times Bestseller list after its initial publication in 2006, on the Globe and Mail Bestseller list in Canada in 2009 and 2010, and on The New York Times Best Seller list in 2014 and 2015. In 2021, it was in the top 5 on The Sunday Times' bestseller list in the United Kingdom. In 2021, Newsweek and The Times reported that Why Men Love Bitches had become popular on TikTok. By February 2021, the hashtag #whymenlovebitches had been viewed on TikTok over 9.2 million times. In 2023, Bustle reported that both Why Men Love Bitches and Why Men Marry Bitches had gone viral on TikTok and had reportedly exceeded 200 million views on the platform.
