Blythe Roberson is a writer and comedian whose work has been published by the New Yorker, The Onion, ClickHole, VICE Magazine, and others, and has been mentioned by the New York Times, the Washington Post, and New York Mag. She works as a researcher at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Blythe is the author of How to Date Men When You Hate Men.
With biting wit, Roberson explores the dynamics of heterosexual
dating in the age of #MeToo. -- The New York Times This is a
perfect book for women of all ages who have found that, despite
their best efforts, dating men rarely works out in their favor. --
Publishers Weekly
Roberson's achievement in remaining funny while excavating her pain
is just straightforwardly heroic. -- The New Republic When too many
men are monopolizing the headlines with their reprehensible
behavior, Roberson takes a closer look at the system that breeds
and normalizes this bad behavior, and guides us through the perils
of dating -- from crushes to break-ups -- with a healthy dose of
heart, humor, and feminism. -- PAPER Magazine
How To Date Men When You Hate Men is an incredibly funny
read that was surely not written when Blythe was supposed to be
working for me. - Stephen Colbert "I'm going to be that
person in their 30s who says something about someone in their 20s
as if I am so removed from that time period: if you are in your
20s, most things make no sense, but thank sweet baby Jesus that
Blythe Roberson's How to Date Men When You Hate Men exists,
and it's something I wish I had during that time. Funny, sharp, and
feminist fun in a way we're led to believe isn't possible. You'll
have a blast reading this and then date...or not date anyone
because you are living your best single life with new best friend
Roberson by your side." - Phoebe Robinson, New York Times
bestselling author of You Can't Touch My Hair Men oppress
us; we also want to smooch them. Blythe manages to not only laugh
at the pain of holding these two truths at once, but to find
meaning, inspiration and empowerment in it. I've brought this book
up in 1,000 conversations since I read it. - Hallie Bateman,
illustrator of What to Do When I'm Gone This book is so funny
and insightful, and it makes us both so glad we're married to each
other and forever exempt from dating men! - Maris Kreizman,
author of Slaughterhouse 90210, and Josh Gondelman, author
of Nice Try
