What is controversial about Submissive Wives?

Hollywood has refused to accept the market draw of catering to conservatives and Christians, almost without exception any movie that caters to this crowd is a sure win at the box office.  Cable television on the other hand has accepted this and embraced it.  Think Duck Dynasty and the Duggars.  Even when online petitions have sought to remove these families from television the TV show lives on.  Even with the recent scandal involving Josh Duggar and his sisters, I predict advertisers would still line up to put the next season on the air.  They even have a spin off show featuring Pastor Bates and his 20 children

The latest show to cater to the Christian right is a TV special called "Submissive Wives" or Submissive Wives guide to marriage."  You can hear the misogynists drool and the feminists moan as each form opinions on the show without having actually seen it.  Unlike mysogynists and feminists those who believe in equal rights for men and women realize that some times women chose to submit.

Is Advertising Sexist

I was going to write a thought out response to my friend LaciGreen's recent video embedded below



In short her argument is based on cherrypicked evidence and generalizations not grounded on any real data.

The Internet is not a place for good news



Yesterday I made the mistake of uploading a video showing off this lady I was seeing.  I introduced her to my viewers.  Almost immediately my comment section was flooded by comments calling her a hooker.  Now there is nothing wrong with hookers, in fact I have been upfront and honest about admitting that I have used them.  However, I foolishly thought that there might be people happy for me.  How very unwise of me.
