My name is Peter Andre, and I'm not a man. I take gummy vitamins. I require Band-Aids for paper cuts. I've been called petite in mixed company. When Peter wed the love of his life, he assumed he would cross two thresholds at once: marriage and manhood. But months after he exchanged vows, Peter is the same passive-aggressive man-child he has always been. He can barely hammer a nail, keeps mum when people cut in line, and whines when he loses board games. It's time for a change. His plan? Complete a different manly activity every week for an entire year. Along the way, Peter attempts to validate his manliness by: Trying Scotch for the first time Learning how to defend himself Going and subsequently hating camping Losing a battle of wits with a CPR dummy Playing home run derby with an eight-year-old Shooting a handgun at NRA headquarters Picking up lots of dog doo Bombing onstage at a stand-up open mic night Getting hopelessly lost in a public park Experiencing loss-of-technology withdrawals Becoming a dad-sort of ...and many more manly endeavors He may not always succeed in these weekly challenges-or even mostly succeed-but through the course of living the masculine life, Peter will find out that being a man in today's world is nothing like he imagined it would be.
