Men to Avoid in Art and Life, by Nicole Tersigni

Nicole Tersigni's idea for Men to Avoid in Art and Life is fun and silly and sure to bring a smile to the women in your life.  She takes classic art and adds captions to bring some more modern sensibilities to the fore.  She divides the book into sections dealing with mansplaining, sexperts, and misplaced concern.

This is funny stuff, even if it does base its humor on stale stereotypes about male attitudes and behaviors.  Only the thinnest skinned man will be offended, and men and women alike will get a chuckle about the familiarity of the scenarios.  (But it's other men, not me. . . .)

By the way, for the art lover, she provides a listing of the works and artists, as well as the museums where the are found.
