The Real Rules for Girls Life sure would have been easier for us daughters if our moms--or someone, anyone!--had given us even a fraction of the advice contained in Mindy Morgenstern's hilarious, insightful new book, "The Real Rules for Girls." Covering topics such as romance, work ("no drama queens in the office"), social life ("being shy is no excuse"), and life tips ("stamp out your inner critic"), this book is determined to empower a new generation of young women. We asked Mindy to write an essay that proved once and for all that a little education is NOT a dangerous thing, and that what you don't know CAN hurt you. Just ask Juliet... Real Girl Advice for unReal Girls by Mindy Morgenstern As if I didn't have enough to do, what with book signings and talk shows, and finding the right hair goo for my frizzy curls, Amazon.com has asked me to consider a different twist on my upcoming book, "The Real Rules for Girls." They wondered what would have happened if some of the most famous women characters from the past had enjoyed the benefit of "The Real Rules." In spite of myself, and an unruly mane of hair, I was intrigued... So I got to thinking, if Juliet of "Romeo and Juliet" would only have read "The Real Rules for Girls" before her untimely tragedy, you can bet things would have turned out better. Had Juliet only ripped her lips away from Romeo's for one second, here's what she could have learned from me: There Is No Happily Ever After Not that I'm down on love, folks, it's just that I'm realistic. Love takes work! It takes great communication skills! This is totally off the top of my head, but if you, say, want to take a sleeping potion that lowers your heart rate to give the appearance of death, you might want to make sure your boyfriend totally understands the plan BEFORE you take the potion. You wouldn't want him to mistake you for really being dead and kill himself out of grief, only to have you wake soon after to see HIM dead. If only e-mail had been invented: TO: RomeoM@Veronalink FROM: JulietC@Veronalink RE: Faking death Dearest, Taking a sleeping potion to faketh deatheth. Don't doeth anything stupideth until I come to. Trust me. I love you. J Okay, so it wasn't perfect iambic pentameter, but you get the message. Don't you?! Then there's Cinderella--you know, the chick from the fairy tale. Few people know this, but Cindy had an early galley copy of "The Real Rules for Girls." The Brothers Grimm conveniently left this factoid out of their famous fairy tale, but the real skinny is, while Cindy was left behind to pick out lentils from the ashy fireplace while her mean stepmother and stepsisters went off to the prince's ball, she took a break from her chores, spotted the book sitting on the coffee table, and opened it to page 46 where she found this quote: "Just Go to the Damn Party." Coincidence? I think not! Our little Cinderella had everything going against her. Every reason not to go to the ball. Didn't have the right dress. Didn't have the Prada pumps. She only had a couple of mice and a pumpkin to speak of. All right, so she happened to have a fairy godmother, who totally dolled her up, and turned the white mice into horses and the pumpkin into a carriage--but that's beside the point. The fact is, the chick totally pulled herself up by her broomstick and just went to the damn party. Okay, so she was a total klutz and lost one of her shoes, but she got her prince in the end AND she was true to herself. Just think what would have happened if Cindy hadn't read the book. Tragedy averted, I tell you! So ladies, be prepared for life. Learn from the fabulous heroines that went before you. Pick up a copy of "The Real Rules for Girls." And find the right hair goo.
