Though many people may get a little uneasy about books that promise to help with their love life by examining some
discrete and involuntary aspects of themselves, such as when they were born, not as in the year but instead where
when they were born in comparison to their siblings. Author William Cane, who is noted for studying kissing and
teaching readers how to do it now offers a new book, “The Birth Order Book of Love: How the #1 Personality
Predictor Can Help You Find the One.”
Readers will find more useful material in the book than first anticipated. Everyone knows that the older sister is bossy
and that an only child may grow up without any great peer skills. However, there is much more to it than these
stereotypical observations. Readers will learn about a rank conflict among siblings. For example, if a woman is the
older sister of sisters, she may be able to bond with women but how would she deal with men? An only male child
may have trouble getting comfortable with a female that is used to always being in the middle, but why?
Each chapter of the book explains a particular birth order personality, ranging from the older brother of brothers to
female only child to twins and middle children. It is impossible to pick up a book like this one without looking at the
heading that relates to the reader. For those that are the firstborn child, male or female, it is likely that they are
used to wearing the shroud of responsibility and organization. By Cane’s studies, they will experience a rank conflict
with other firstborns but may be frustrated over long term relationships with lastborn children. For those who have a
friend that is an older sister of same-sex siblings, and they are a middle or lastborn female, there will be a lot of
friction. In someone marries a twin, there will never be total intimacy, it will always be reserved for the twin. It is
explained that twins are best with other twins who are willing to put up with having a constant rival for communication
because they have their own.
Though birth order is not something that can be controlled, Cane explains that it is something that is able to control
everyone if they are not careful. As with astrology, it is a system that can help people find a soul mate or hinder them
by making them feel like rejecting potential mates because they are the wrong sign or birth order. Cane’s system
can be revelatory after people have made a decision about their chosen partner, but that it could keep people from
choosing someone because of their challenges is necessary and exciting. Still, this system could help in avoiding
some pitfalls for people in certain relationships. For a firstborn child that realizes that they always fail in relationships
with lastborn children, the temptation can be avoided.
Though birth order doesn’t necessarily work as a science, it can help people to see certain aspects of how birth
order can affect how one relates with other people, and how two different birth orders may get along or clash with
each other. “The Birth Order Book of Love: How the #1 Personality Predictor Can Help You Find the One” is an
interesting read, though it should be taken for the final word on choosing a partner.
