(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.

Who pulled your cord?

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.

"Snarling manipulative beasts trampling out years of feminist progress"  Really?   Something really pushed your buttons today.  You remind me of the guy who came out of divorce court saying, "all women are cows."

 

I agree with you about the "worst man in the world" characterisation -- it's a bit over the top.  But a woman should not have to worry about being "taken seriously" by men.  Men should afford that courtesy without reservation, but they don't.  Men afford men respect just because they are male.  Women, on the other hand, are told to "get over it" and "earn it."  Walk a mile in the moccasins, my friend, before you offer advice.

Quote From: teacher53

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.

At the end of the day, he'll be all alone with the one he loves the most............himself.

Hilarious

John is too funny. He rates himself a 8.9? Please. He's not even half goodlooking, I wouldn't even take a second look if I saw him out.

WOW with a face like John's....

You would think he would work on his personality...does 5 years of no real relationship give you a hint John?

Profile of a date rapist?

 Warning to Women: I was date raped by a man who had the same ideals as Paul (the author of How to get f@#*ed in New York)

I feel Paul posses these warning signs:
1. He stressed getting the woman to a "controlled environment" where the situation could become sexual.
2. He admits to having the caveman ideal of taking what you want when you want it.
3. He has arrogant personality traits that overcompensate for something. (Low self esteem?)
4. Paul is selfish in nature, for example, he refuses to spend money on a woman's dinner.

Date rapists come in all forms, but I can't help but wonder if all 132 of the women he slept with consented. Paul's personality is very real and scary to me since he resembles someone who raped me. I'm am now especially cautious toward men with these opinions.

real men

  • Real men know they are men, and know they don't have to prove anything to anyone in anyway.   Their masculinity speaks for its self.   
  • John and Paul are obviously trying to hide something from the rest of the world, but the only people who can't see what they are hiding is John and Paul.

Quote From: lawduchess

The two men the subject of this program are probably sociopaths who happen to be nice looking. If they keep up their selfish, egotistical ways, they'll probably end up fathering children they don't want and paying child support until their kids turn the age of majority, or they'll end up shot. Either way, people like that end up getting theirs in the end. Literally.
At the end of the day, Paul will be all alone with the one he loves the most............himself.  The other guy (can't think of his name) will be lucky if he's anywhere.  Oh well, I did have a good laugh for about an hour.

Sheesh

These two men have the lowest self-esteem of just about anyone I've ever met.    Not to mention skanky.

huge egos

 What jerks.  They must have low self esteem to think they are better than others.  How dare them.  People like that are uglier than anyone else.  Your inside makes you beautiful not the outside.  Maybe the initial attaction is the outside, but that doesn't go far.  The first guest (don't even care to remember names) is incredably unattractive, and that is being nice.  What drives these people?  They don't understand they will be alone for their whole life.  A one night stand is the worst sex.  I made love with my spouse a couple times a day and sometimes more.  Sometimes up to eight times in a row after 11 years.  I am 51 years old. I'm only saying this to show  you men what you'll be missing.   The most unbelievable you'll.  You will never experience that.  I pity you all.   Enjoy your lives.  You are the uglist men I have ever  seen.  You don't deserve women with class.

PAUL

Quote From: gingers4u

To Paul and all others like him:  

 

I really don't understand how you cannot fear the hand of  Our Lord God Almighty!?!   You may be having your fun here on earth but it is not going to be fun when you are burning continually in hell for the rest of eternity.

 

Yes Paul you may be very proud of the number of woman you slept with.  Soo proud you kept a list.  But Paul remember God Almighty is keeping a list too.   I suggest you bring it to confession with you immediately!!

 

May God bless you and have mercy on you Paul and all the others like you!!!

Dr. Phil, I know that you are a renowned psychotherapist, but  I have to voice my own opinion about PAUL.

Some thing is DEFINITELY wrong with his mind and his capacity to think.  A guy like him I would not like around me.  There is such a thing as a RAPIST, but he rapes women mentally.  I do believe he is trying to make up for his own inhibitions and his inability to perceive himself as a real man.  I think behind that macho facade he is trying to hide the fact that more and more ESTROGEN is leaking through his body.  Give up Paul and come out of the closet so that you too can be abused by one of you  -CAVEMAN MENTALITY.
