Bridget: 15/26: Why Do Men Have Nipples- Hundreds of Questions You Would Ask Your Doctor Only after Your Third Martini by Mark Leyner & Billy Goldberg

Stats: 224 pp, Adult Entertainment (didn't know how else to classify this)

Summary: Really entertaining book! The book was written by a tv show writer (who wrote for an MTV show about doctors and a show named Wonderland) as well as an ER doc who was asked to consult on Wonderland (which was panned after a few episodes) and had a lot of answers or access to journals that found answers to the questions asked.

I found myself laughing out loud frequently. There are various questions with topics ranging from bathroom humor, body parts, alcohol and food consumption, old wives tales and more. I had already learned some of these things throughout life but there are definitely questions that I had not even thought to ask that random people had asked these gents. The writers also include various IM messages that they had written each other during the construction of this book. You learn a bunch of vocabulary too. My favorite word is callipygian which means "having well-shaped buttocks" :)

Warning: If swearing offends you, though infrequent, it is used throughout the book in various parts.

Recommended if you want some light entertaining reading.
