(Matawan, NJ, February 19, 2006) — Unlearn! Because Life Can Make You Stupid is a controversial treatise in where author Richard Woods bluntly shares his non-traditional thoughts on the self-help industry, marriage, monogamy, political correctness, and morality.
Americans continue to practice certain unrealistic behaviors at the urging of many so-called self-help gurus. For example, even though the diet and relationship industries gross millions of dollars annually, people continue to gain weight and get divorced. Woods maintains that if you want to make a real life changes, you must be honest with yourself. You need to unlearn much of the ideology ingrained since childhood and reinforced by the “self-hurt” industry. Woods also challenges the traditional view on monogamy and its place in marriage, offering a series of perspectives on matrimony far different from those you have been conditioned to believe.
“Our society, religions, Walt Disney, and Lite FM have all given us sexual disinformation!,” says Woods. “The result is what you see in the world around you every day. Half of traditional marriages end in divorce. They tend to be the lucky ones because most of the remaining 50% are, at best, unhappy. It takes courage to be happy though, and most people actually settle into their life sentence of sexual frustration rather than do something about it,” added Woods.
Woods has little tolerance for people who distort facts to advance their own agendas. He has even fewer leniencies for hypocrites and bigots, and values truth and honesty above all else. Woods looks at the segment of our society that practices non-monogamous relationships, and draws conclusions that the self-hurt industry will undoubtedly take exception with. He revels at the thought.

Instead, it is a mixture of facts and opinion based on Woods' years of experience and observation.
