UD&M č un pamphlet ironico e tagliente. Partorito sulla scia emotiva di un'esperienza personale dell'autrice, esso affronta di petto - non senza una giusta dose di autocritica - il mondo della televisione contemporanea. Il programma sotto osservazione č Uomini e Donne, ma al posto suo potrebbe starci la maggior parte dei reality o format che del 'salotto' e degli interventi strillati fanno i propri cavalli di battaglia. Il Tronista (Luca Dorigo), il 'bellone' che la stessa autrice si era recata a corteggiare, viene messo alle strette, e con esso una logica intera, quella della televisione assoggettata a meccanismi mercificatori dei corpi. Il libro contiene al suo interno anche il CD con la canzone omonima interpretata dall'autrice e Luca Galeano, chitarrista degli Sugarfree.
