Online dating in a nutshell...skip to the middle of the vid:

http://youtu.be/X47oO-_Ola0

Wow, Dr. Phil makes me sick to my stomach. He's so biased. His audience is ALL female. So he male bashes like a mangina to the extreme.

Let us have a NON-mangina discussion about what that guy said regarding online dating and women:

1) Girls who don't show their body online are hiding something.

- Generally true from experience. Girls not only hide being overweight, but they also hide physical disabilities. Again, from experience, BOTH firsthand and secondhand.

2) He works out and takes care of his body. He is only expecting the same from the women he dates.

- What the hell is wrong with that? Oh that's shallow sweetie? Tell me more about how you only date men 6'0 and up.

3) He called that girl out on being overweight.

- Maybe a little bit inappropriate, but nothing incredibly offensive. If you're going to be less than honest about your body, then you should expect some flak for it later on. You can't hide your body forever.

4) He was criticized for being the one to respond to her after she supposedly "rejected" him.

- Horsesh1t! Girls are passive-aggressive. We all know that. They do stupid things like send "winks", because they have paper-thin egos and don't want to take rejection head-on. They're scared stupid by rejection. So what do they do? They ease into the situation and reject you before you have a chance to reject them. They can be that petty. And I'm sure this girl he spoke to was petty. How do I know? Moving on to the next point...

5) SHE posted his e-mail in the public domain to vilify and humiliate him.

- She obviously IS petty. So I don't take it as being beneath her to be the type to reject someone before they have a chance to reject her. So petty and pathetic.

6) He's arrogant.

- Okay, maybe a little. At least he has something to show for it. How many arrogant women have you come across who are arrogant for nothing other than being born with a vagina? I met more than I care to know personally.


That guy on there said nothing offensive at all. Look at him, he's a pretty good looking guy who makes a lot of money. He's getting sh1t from some ugly old post-menopausal looking jealous woman and the mangina known as Dr. Phil. All he said was that he wants to date women in his league. He didn't name call and bash the girl. He didn't try to humiliate her in a public way as what she did to him

SHE is the villain in this story. Yet the man is being burned at the stake. Horsesh1t.

That is what men in society have to deal with today. Keep your heads held up high men. For every mangina like Dr. Phil, there is a guy like me and you who won't put up with that crap. We will stand up for ourselves and stop this media propaganda that always casts the man as the villain.

Let's have some fun:

What do you call a rapist? A man.

What do you call a heroic man who saves someone's life? A worker. A coal miner. A roofer. A bystander. A colleague. A machine operator. A passerby.

Masculinity is vilified in the media when a man does something wrong. Yet when a man is a hero in the story, he is stripped of his masculinity and called by a title.

Anyone else notice this trend?

I know the video is not new. You're totally missing the point. I'm trying to draw a discussion about the way masculinity is portrayed in modern media in a very general sense. Did you even read my post at all?

From a woman's point-of-view...the guy in the first part is a chubby and average looking at best... but Paul Janka... (part 3)... mmmmm, I'd tap that in a heartbeat! That first guy wouldn't be so bad if he just would shut his trap about his dubious "accomplishments" and just be himself. He's trying WAY too hard! He certainly has the right to expectations in what he's looking for, but his defensive reaction to that woman who was telling him "thanks but no thanks" made him look like an insecure douche. And his justification of why he responded - even worse. Oh, and never EVER wear suspenders. Ever.

(Edit to add- I can't STAND Dr. Phil or his audience!!)

The first guy's delivery needs work. He needs to detach himself from society's view of attractiveness and work on the natural. See how women want a caveman to rock her senseless, but says she wants a normal, level-headed guy?

And I think suspenders are kind of cool... :/

This is true, but it depends on what I'm looking for. If I'm just looking for a eff buddy (or really, just a one-night-stand) then Paul Janka-types are just fine... that's what it's all about - hot chemistry and hot sex and nothing else really matters (he can even wear suspenders!).

But relationship-wise, yeah, there are different criteria. That's when level-headedness, character, compatibility and all those other things come into play.

lol.. these videos make me laugh.. all it is doing is giving this guy publicity. obvs girls are going to hate on him because it goes against societies views.

he doesn't care because he knows that it works and he is going to get what he wants in the end anyway. so

Exactly. As much as those hideous girls hate on him for his attitude, it ATTRACTS girls online. He is a product of how girls behave online.

But of course, everything is always the man's fault. Even the flaws of women are the man's fault. It is the man's fault for not adjusting to the woman's flaws. Not the woman for having them in the first place.

Believe it or not, that is actually how many women think.
