Dr. Phil.com - End the Silence on Domestic Violence - The entire show is devoted to domestic violence against women. Ironically, Dr. Phil remains SILENT about DV on men. Time to end the silence Dr. Phil?

The Oprah & Dr. Phil duo have always been somewhat anti-male.

I'm not really surprised by this - they (like most of the media) are eager to only present men as abusers and avoid the prickly topic of women as abusers. The closest they will get to that is of "hitters" - young girls who hit other girls - and that is only because there are female victims.

To put it bluntly - they don't give a flying fuck about stopping DV against men.

What would be his motivation to change? There is no money in challenging cultural stereotypes, only reinforcing them.

Was his show broadcast from 1950? Cuz there's been some changes since then...

Well, how about contacting them and appearing on their show?

If there are male victims of DV and members of male advocacy groups, how about they get on the show and represent. If they deny your wanting to appear on the show or flat out ignore repeated requests, then we'll have firm evidence that we can go to media outlets with.

If you guys try to get on the show and are denied/ignored, then you can take that to Glenn Sacks and other guys and blow this crap out of the water.

Better yet, how about we take the MRA movement on the road? Get Paul, Pierce, and some other notable faces together and see if they would be interested in appearing on these talk shows and fight the good fight.

There is a metric-fuck-ton of money from "women are victims of domestic violence." There is nothing but debt in "men are victims of domestic violence."

Dr. Phil is a carnival Bally selling pseudo-self-worth to delusional children who confuse being spoiled rotten and not getting what they want with actual abuse.

Dr. Phil and Oprah are hucksters who got rich by peddling emotional pop psych junkfood.
