Dating, Mating and Manhandling - L.A. Style
Spotted: A 50-something grown normal-looking man openly reading “Dating, Mating and Manhandling” in public at the Urth Cafe on Melrose. I mean, I know these books get read, I’m sure I have a stash of “Why Men Marry Bitches” and dating books by Dr. Phil on love myself, but do I read them in plain sight of cafe-goers? Negative.
At least take the jacket off! He even left the book cover-side up for a while while he ordered more food. I was even able to see cover details, my favorite being the author’s title: Lauren Frances, P.h. Double D.
That’s how we do it in my L.A. though. Put everything out there for the world to see. Boobs, bling and apparently books too. Everything gets put on display for public consumption.
