What’s With This Book?

Who thought of this? Is this a joke? “Wine for WOMEN”? That makes as much sense to me as “Spinach for Dwarves” or “Tofu for Jesuits.”
It’s amazing to me not only that this book was made but that it will sell. There are women out there that will see this book and say: “I’m a woman! I drink wine! This book is for meeee!”
How ridiculous! How exploitive! How unnecessary!
And my rant is now over.
