Men, psychologists, and "relationship experts" have written hundreds of books telling men what women want. But, have YOU ever been asked by any of them? Author DJ Westerfield is writing a book about what women really want from men, and she is asking REAL WOMEN to answer the question "What do you want from the man (or future man) in your life? Interpret the question in your own way and answer in your own words.

The Book is Imminent!
There are still responses slowly rolling in. But I know many people are as anxious to get the book as I am to get it out to you! Also, I've realized that I am gradually meeting and reaching new women through my other work and they are logging on and responding to the "ultimate" question. So, I have realized this project will be ongoing for a very long time.
With that in mind, I have decided to make this a series of short ebooks AND magazine style printed volumes. I will let everyone know very soon when and where you can purchase your copy of VOLUME 1.
Thank you for all of the support!

Your answer counts!
This project has morphed from just another relationship book into something new and exciting. The wonderfully candid and sometimes moving experiences, stories, wants and desires women are sharing are amazing.
Many women have asked me: "Does this help?" The answer is YES! Every answer is valid and important. And I will put as many of the quotes I get (with privacy protected as promised) as I possibly can. All of them if I can. What you think and feel matters. And that is the point of this book.
Please, share your answer to the question "What do you want from a man?" and be a part of this amazing project.
Here is the form I am asking everyone to fill out to participate in this book:

What does it mean to you?
I had someone point out a very valid point to me today. She said it: "might make it easier for people if you had specific questions to answer."
She is right. And I will be posting some specific questions on the FB page to get reactions. I will actually be using the data from the responses women are giving me now to form those questions.
However, I felt I should explain why the original question was mounted the way it was to begin with.
What do you really want from the man in your life?
That is a loaded question. It can mean many things, such as: What are you looking for in a future mate? What are the characteristics that attract you to a man? How do you want to be treated? How can the man in your life change to be the person you want him to be? What can the man in you life do to make you happier? What are things you will not tolerate from any man? And so much more....
The truth is that every woman who reads the question: What do you really want from the man in your life? is going to interpret it differently. And that is exactly what I want. I want your first and most honest reaction to the question. Why? Because that is how you get at the truth. The more you analyze what it means the more you formulate a "politcally correct" answer. The core of this project is to give the honest truth about what women really and truly want. So, if the first thing that pops into your head when you read the question is "to leave me the hell alone and let me do my own thing," then that is the response I want.
I hope this goes a little way to explaining why I asked a somewhat vague question. I also hope you will all follow the facebook page and answer questions when posted.

No, I didn't spam you--I need your help.
For those of you who are visiting this page because you got a DM from @curvywriter on Twitter, NO...it's not spam and No...the account has not been hacked. I have spent several hours this morning sending out over 200 DM's to every female follower I have on my @curvywriter account on Twitter.
I have done this because the more responses I get from my announcements the more I see how important this book can be to both men and women. But I need MORE responses. I need a MINIMUM of 50 more responses, and I'm having a hard time getting the word out by myself.
What I need is for every person to respond AND share the link. I know not every one of you will respond, but I am truly hoping that at least half of you will. This book is about REAL WOMEN, and I need REAL WOMEN to respond in order to write it.
Thank you ALL!

What do you really want?
Honesty? Respect? A relationship with God? Hot sex? Help with the kids? Help around the house? Someone who will listen? Do you want your man to take out the trash more, or mop the floor, or spend more time tending to your sexual needs?
Do you often feel like the men in your life just don't get it? If you could be completely and totally honest without worry about the fall out or consequences...what would you tell men (or your man)?
Now is your chance. I am doing research on a book about what women really want from men. I want complete and total honesty about what is really important to women.

No holds barred. I want the REAL truth.
By answering this, you are giving me permission to quote you. ALL answers will be considered ANONYMOUS unless you give a first name. If you feel comfortable, please give your age. (YOU MUST BE 18 TO ANSWER)
Please share this with your women friends. I need a minimum of 100 answers before I can begin this portion of the book.
