I am woman, hear me roar...because I was abused as a child.

I really hate Lifetime. It's supposed to be geared toward women. I'm a woman and I think everything on that channel sucks ass. When I try to apply the rules of the Lifetime channel to my real life there is a definite double standard. There are women out there who hate to acknowledge it, but it's true. Women can do anything that men can do, BUT men can't do anything women can do. I see all you feminazis out there giving one another high fives...sit your ass down. This is NOT a good thing. When women have their own channel it's empowering. When men have one it's chauvinistic. They're pigs. By the way, how long did it take for Spike TV to come along? Forever. Lifetime has been around since the earth cooled, and has been horrible for that long. And the Oxygen channel...why do we need one of those? As if Lifetime hasn't been turning women's brains into mush for the past 2 decades!

Wait, there's more. You've all seen a Lifetime movie. They're meant to empower women. Here's how a typical Lifetime movie goes:
1. Woman has beautiful home and family
2. Woman is not satisfied with beautiful home and family
3. Woman A) cheats on husband B) leaves family C) kills family or D) all of the above
4. Woman has sex with toy boy
5. Woman cries a lot
6. Woman is found out
7. Woman cries a lot
8. Woman A) is accepted with open arms by husband and family B) flees to Mexico with toy boy or C) is caught by the police but is given community service and a slap on the wrist because she claimed to be a battered wife.
9. Woman cheats on husband again with female parole officer (it's just what she's wanted all along)
10. Husband is castrated (OK, that doesn't usually happen. I wouldn't be surprised, though)

Now, replace the woman with a man and he's instantly a scum bag. Both his wife AND mistress are the victims. His wife nags him. His mistress nags him. His children nag him. Then he's stoned to death by the community for killing these awful people. Where is the humanity??? Don't even get me started on the Lifetime/Oxygen movies where there is a 30-something teacher who sleeps with her 15 year old student. She's in love with him. She's not a child molester. She's showing him the love that he doesn't get at home. Waa waa waa. Now, turn that kind hearted educator into a man and he's instantly a sex pervert. No way he could love his student. He's a man. Men are incapable of love! He's not showing her affection. He's taking advantage of a poor unsuspecting girl. Cut off his balls! Gasp! Seriously, my point is that women need to get over themselves. Get your head out of your own ass and realize that no "programming for women" is going to make you strong. In fact, I'm pretty sure it's making you dumber by the minute. You're the only one who can empower you. Watching Nancy McKeon battle her demons as a female cop won't make you stronger.

Men have better programming anyway. Why would I want to watch another "Hallmark Hall of Fame" movie with Patrick Dempsey in it when I could watch Rambo and Platoon back to back?? Now that's quality television.
