(Original Air Date: 05/07/08) Ladies, listen up as Dr. Phil sheds light on men to avoid! You know the type: They can turn you off with their confidence, offend you with their arrogance and make you wonder if they actually hate women. He’s talking to men with out-of-control egos! John was dubbed The Worst Person in the World after sending what many would describe as a nasty, egotistical e-mail to a woman who rejected him on an Internet dating site. John admits he has a big ego but says he’s "all that and a bag of chips!" Don’t miss what happens when cameras follow John to a bar where he works his magic on the women! Then, meet Paul, a self-proclaimed Casanova who says men need to act more like cavemen. Paul says he’s proud of the fact that he’s slept with over 132 women and keeps a spreadsheet of his conquests. He says he’s so good at getting women into bed that he’s written a How To manual for men. Paul’s techniques are put to the test when he secretly coaches an introvert in a crowded club. Plus, one woman whom Paul couldn’t add to his spreadsheet joins him onstage. Where does she say he went wrong? Talk about the show here.

Find out what happened on the show.

egos are for teenagers

I think this man from Atlanta is playing teenagers games, teenagers are the ones that have ego issues because they havnt matured yet. I think he is so insecure with his own looks that uses this ego thing to avoid his insecurities. And I must say he is not an attractive man whatsoever.

todays show

I think the boys on todays show was a joke. I have teenage boys and it is like listening to them talk,but at least they are taught by me to show more respect for women than these guys do.  Neither of the guys on the show were attractive, and i think both of them are trying to make up for a small penis. They need to grow up!!!!!!!

Out of Control

I find it disturbing that these men think they are god's gift to women. In a world where most people want a good and healthy relationship-woman find these two. John certainly looks over 40, and he has no right to tell someone they need to go to the gym. He had several imperfections-maybe he is looking in a magic mirror. If he dreams it-it will come true?

Paul needs a reality check!! Talking about the way he sleeps with women just makes him look stupid. I'm sure his family, and his employer enjoyed watching him discuss how he sleeps with women.

I wonder how these men would feel if a woman treated them that way?

07/22 Male Egos Out of Control

Quote From: hpmx59

Control Doctor Egos Male Of Out Phil. That one I never heard of. But this will do for now. At lease Lego------

My Ego. See you on Wednesday May 07th, 2008. Sincerley Your. Russell Vlaanderen.----------------------------- 

This is a real disturbing issues with these guys. John was just a narcissist. You can tell they both have no self esteem. John appears to be a kid that used to get picked on and is trying to get back at everyone that ever hurt him. He also is not even nice looking. I would have sent him an I'm not interested e-mail after his intro e-mail. He clearly does not know what women are looking for in women.

 

Paul just seems sad. He has the looks and the charm but is so alone. What women would want to say I married the man that slept with 132 different women?

 

I am recently married and always thought it was me that had the problem in the dating scene but there are a lot of screwed up men. It is amazing. I am so glad to be out of the dating circle.

Nothing to be upset about

 

The more someone speaks of his quest shows their insecurities. I cannot find anthing wrong with the guys explaining themselves. Anyone in their right mind would not take them seriously enough to get mad. Would I react like the women in the audience? The lady named Tricia showd the world how unhappy she is with herself. Or the young lady who bragged that she wasn't Paul's 132. She was on his trail and he was correct to think that she could have made his spread sheet. if she wasn't nterested she never would have contacted him again. Why get mad? After so many years of experience older women and men should know the game. If you are so naive to pick up on one of these types, then don't hate the player hate the game. Like will draw like. Some people will take what they can for any kind of attention. There are a lot of lonely souls out here. There are a lot of women in that audience that would be glad to have either one of those men. When the camera is on you, of course they all wouldn't have anything to do with them. Those fellows notoreity on the show will get them more attention than they could ever have in a lifetime.

 

Remember everyone does not have the same attraction or turn on like another.

Single and still stuggling thru men with contol issues

I have just started online dating and i have met a few that seem nice and then u come a cross a few that are like John and have an ego where their head will not fit through a door.  I even met a man that gave me a phony phone number and address and business name and when i called him on it and run a background check on him (not even and indepth background check) and called him on it, he had the nerve to turn it around back on me about not trusting him and that he was dissappointed in me.  He claimed he was from one state and the number showed he was from another state.  I have met a man and when he called or text me and I would not stop studying for finals in the spring he became verbally abusive and I told him he was deleted and then a month later forgot who i was and contacted me again and I had to remind him he was blocked and he was very abusive and i had to report him to the dating site.  So there are a lot of men that feel that they are "god's gift" and I mean "god" with a little "g" to women and lie and try to be charming but I found out do not meet them and u do find out their true colors if u do not give in and make them set and wait for u.  Because if they cannot reach u their true jealousy comes out and u know to cut it loose.  Never trust and go with gut instincts automatically.

Too bad

Quote From: 5stephens

John is the kid who got picked on and beaten up all the time in high school.  He is taking his anger out in his adult life, daily trying to prove himself to the world.  Funny he is well educated but lacks any hair of common sense.  Maybe with all his money he could hire the best therapist to help bring him down to reality and stop being so bitter.

 

I feel so sorry for John, defining himself by what he thinks he has done.  Being within 15 feet of the dread red phone does not qualify as having one's finger on the bomb.  Obsessed with what he seems to be only shows his lack of self-esteem.  Whatever his "achievements" are, his head and heart are devoid of anything but himself.  What a shallow existence.  I feel so sorry for John.

 

Ditto for Paul who just has no clue.  If he couldn't have sex, what could he do?  His conversation is limited by his lack of depth.  Though he thinks he is smart, he's opinionated instead.  Full of himself, there's no room for anyone else.  His head and heart are devoid of anything but himself.  What a shallow existence.  I feel so sorry for Paul.

 

I looked for a man who would not use me for self-gratification.  He showed me he cared by the commitments to me that he made and kept.  And I did the same.  Love and true intimacy grow from friendship and trustworthiness, not from "intimacy" that costs nothing.  True love will cost you everything.

 

Pity guys like these and move on to someone who has value for himself and the real you, not just the way you look when you're all dolled up.

Yes...

Quote From: can_read

I tuned in to the 'male ego' show today and can honestly say 'who cares'. If you thinks these men are pathetic and unworthy of attention ignore them. I think this show however spoke volumes about women today. Snarling manipulative beasts trampling out years of feminist progress, get over it, some people just suck that is no reason to make the rest of us look foolish. Really the 'worst man in the world'? Who ever coined that is pathetic, sad and sheltered. How about Hitler? How about child molesters? How about trusted authorities who abuse their power? Really, there are bigger fishes to fry in this world and the longer we stay focused on this petty notion of sexism, the longer our world will fail. If women want respect, earn it! Having a uterus or a husband isn't enough any more. Grow up, get tough and maybe you'll get taken seriously at the very least you'll have what it takes to fend off all the 'big bad' men.
I concur. Who cares, that is life you have the good and the bad. This day and age men and women live together  after knowing each other for 2 weeks. To become upset and disgusted is a waste of emotions.

boo John

I think it is so sad that John sent the woman who rejected him an email saying she was not fit.  At least with diet and exercise, she could improve the way she looks.  John is not in the least bit attractive in the face ( his attitude makes him even less attractive) and the only way he could improve is to visit a plastic surgeon (and perhaps a therapist).

07/22 Male Egos Out of Control

Ok normally women look for that kind of guy for a fun time and they go to the a normal guy (whatever you consider that to be) for a responsible relationship.  Personally someone is hiding if they cant show there body for the truth and John is the worst i have ever seen so i am just guessing that this show will ruin his relationships or boost them greatly
