The Rules? Puhleeze! Any real black woman can tell you that when it comes to African-American men, The Rules is about as good as Monopoly money in Macy's. Waiting three days to return a brother's phone call will get a black woman nothing more than a warm spot on the couch by herself with an empty bag of corn chips and the remote.A sister needs her own special set of rules for finding a brother even when it seems that there just aren't that many good ones to go around. Millner says they are out there but sistahs need to drop their materialistic, brother-in-the white-Benz fantasies and pick up the right vibes for finding a genuine brother who's worth keeping around. The Sistahs' Rules gives black women commonsense guidelines for landing in a healthy relationship with a makes-your-toes-curl brother, including:

Get to know his mama, get to know him
Use what you got to get what you want
Girlfriends are everything, but they don't know it all

With warm stories and practical advice from black mamas and papas who've been there and done that, and sistahs and brothers in the mix, The Sistahs' Rules is a sassy, hip, step-by-step guide to finding Brother Mr. Rightand having fun in the process.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The Sistahs' Rules gives black women no-nonsense guidelines for landing in a healthy relationship with a Brother Mr. Right - from a sistah who has one. A sistah needs her own special set of rules for finding a guy, because the fact is: Black men don't want to waste energy strategizing about how to play those coy Barbie doll games. They want to be in it - with you. The Sistah's Rules keeps it real. Follow them and you will find an eligible black man, win him, and understand exactly how to keep him in a no-nonsense, committed relationship. With The Sistah's Rules you honor your standards and yourself, without settling for any less from a man. Although they may seem harsh ("After you get your swerve on, get up out of his bed and go home"), they tell you to live your own life so you don't cling to his. While they may seem over-the-top ("The way to a man's heart is through a great plate of greens"), they encourage you to please and be pleased. And although they require some work ("Get to know his mama, get to know him"), they will get you the man who is right for you - without wasting time.
