I'd agree, Rational Male is a life changing book.

It works on a number of levels:

- Confirms many young man's (usually wrong) biases about women.

- Provides a convenient post-hoc rationalization to men who cannot get laid.

- Further mystifies the idea of women by building convoluted pseudo-intellectual structures.

It definitely changed a friend's life for the worse, and he's gotten even worse at relationships than he previously was

It doesn’t say anything about the book quality. The book gives knowledge, whether or how to apply the knowledge is absolutely different subject. People tend to be stick to their biases and delusions, with relationships particularly so.
