Crisscrossing the country with her bluehaired poodle, Lewis Carroll, E. Jean stopped in every town named after a woman between Eden, Vermont and Tallulah, Louisiana to ask women the crucial question: What Do We Need Men For?E. Jean gave her rollicking road trip a sly, stylish turn when she deepened the story, creating a list called The Most Hideous Men of My Life, and began to reflect on her own sometimes very dark history with the opposite sex. What advice would she have given to her past selvesas Miss Cheerleader USA and Miss Indiana University? Or as the fearless journalist, television host, and eventual advice columnist she became? E.

Her answer to the question What Do We Need Men For? will shock men and delight women.
