Watch: FOX News Hosts Give Women The Worst, Most Sexist Advice Ever

In this astonishing and disturbing clip, FOX News’s Andrea Tantaro, Stacey Dash and the rest of the gender-traitors on Outnumbered defend a grossly misogynistic article published in Glamour magazine. Tantaros happily condemns the role of modern women to one of servitude: “Oh please! Look at this list, it has great suggestions in here!” she raves. Her list of suggestion for wives to please their husbands sounds like it was written by frat boys: Make him a sandwich after sex! Bring him beer in the shower! Answer the door in your lingerie! Let him solve your petty work problems, because it makes him feel manly and silly women can’t make decisions for themselves!

She claims (although almost certainly does not) that she “is a very traditional old-fashioned girl and I do these things for my man. I do. And that’s why they are always smiling.”

It’s very difficult to hear such blatant appeals to patriarchal dominance as the Republican Party pushes forward bills to defund Planned Parenthood and give employers the ability to fire pregnant single mothers. The war on women is very real, and the hosts of Outnumbered are collaborators of the worst kind.

2. the list

1. “Stocking the fridge with his favorite drinks. Bonus points: Bring him back to his fraternity days by handing him a cold one as he steps out of the shower.”

Yes! Surprise him with a beer when he gets out of the shower when he is slippery, the floor is wet and his reflexes are at their weakest! He will be certain to fall for you then. If he does not, soap the floor.

2. “Making him a snack after sex. It doesn’t have to be a gourmet meal—a simple grilled cheese or milk and cookies will do.”

After sex, when his brain is muddled, dull his brain with food. Feed him a sandwich or milk and cookies, the foods of children and Santa Claus. This lets him believe that when he gets up, he will be safe. But no! You have tied a tripwire between the bed and the nearest chair.

3. “Emailing him the latest online gossip about his favorite TV show. You don’t have to have a BFF at HBO. Just share applicable links from your Twitter feed and pat yourself on the back.”

Be sure to put clues in this “gossip” that his favorite television program will soon film on the edge of a precipice, so that you may better lure him there.

4. “Bragging about him to your friends, family, the stranger on the street corner—whomever. Proclamations of pride will make his chest puff out and his heart swell.”

Yes! This encourages hubris. Hubris leads to a fall.

5. “Answering the door in a negligée—or, better yet, naked.”

While you have him distracted, push him down the mineshaft.

6. “Being open to what he wants to try in the bedroom and out. An open mind is attractive no matter your playground.”

But before you do, be sure to saw through the structural supports of the bed!

7. “Letting him help solve your petty work problem. Many men don’t do gossip, but they do like to fix things.”

Tell him that he can only solve your work problem if he climbs to the top of a rickety ladder.

8. “Spitting out sports stats for his favorite team. Showing an interest in his favorite players will earn you points on and off the field.”

Then, tackle him from behind.

9. “Making a big deal out of his favorite meal. Does he like hot dogs cut up into his boxed mac-and-cheese? Serve it on a fancy tray in bed to really see him smile.”

For dessert, feed him bite-size slices of apple with the peel cut off, taken from the Tree of Knowledge from which he was expressly forbidden to eat.

10. “Treating his friends as well as you treat your own. If you win their affections, you’ll win his heart.”

More important, if you win their affections, you will have them on your side. Use them as allies. Get their help to assemble the trap with its pit of sharpened stakes and cover of leaves. His trust in them will help you lure him there.

11. “Sitting side-by-side while he watches his favorite TV. It may not feel like quality time to you, but it’s the best time to him.”

He will cherish this time so much that he may not notice you are inching the couch ever closer to the rim of a deep well.

12. “Giving him a massage—happy ending completely optional. In fact, a foot rub works just fine.”

Yes! Loosen his limbs until he is weak and helpless as a child. Now, push him out of the chair!

13. “Taking him back to third grade with a gentle tease over anything from how you’ll dominate him on the basketball court to the weird way he just styled his hair.”

Yes! Dent his ego so irreparably that he feels compelled to take up rollerblading. Then wait. Then push him over.

4. This is sexist both towards women and men.

The list commands women what to do to make their man happy, as if their personal wishes don't count.

And the list treats men like dumb pets who can be satisfied by checking things on a list.


A woman wants more than servitude.
And a man wants more than treats, tits and ass in a relationship. A man wants a woman with whom he can share his passions, someone where he can mentally relax and be himself. The sandwich, beer, tits and ass are nice, but they are just short-term measures: They don't make a relationship last. Love happens in the head, not by "doing the horizontal hula".





The increase of divorce-rates is not related to the quality of relationships over time. Indeed it's a simple statistical phenomenon:

In the past, there were maybe 100 girls in your social environment you could possibly meet and date. Out of those you liked maybe 10. And out of those you married 1. Even if you weren't satisfied, you stuck together because there were no alternatives.
Nowadays there are 100,000 girls in your social environment (thanks internet) you could possibly meet and date. Out of those you like maybe 1000. And out of those you marry 1. If you aren't satisfied, well, you know there are 1000 other girls out there and each of those might be the one.

To me. Have read articles going the other way on how to please a woman. Shrug. It's glamour magazine, it is silly.

9. Andrea Tantaros' current bf is Dave Navarro of Jane's Addiction

Personal life[edit]

Navarro has been married and divorced three times. He married his first wife, make-up artist Tania Goddard, in a pagan ceremony[17] in 1990 and his second wife, Rhian Gittins, in a civil ceremony on October 15, 1994. Navarro married model and actress Carmen Electra, on November 22, 2003. On July 17, 2006, Navarro and Electra announced their split to Star Magazine. Navarro posted a message on his blog the following morning saying "I just want to say thanks for all of your love and support. I'm sure that you can understand that I wish to keep all personal matters private." Electra filed for divorce on August 8, 2006.

He is currently dating Fox News host Andrea Tantaros.

I wonder if Faux knows about Dave? lolol

No particular slam on Dave but I would not want him to date my daughter, sister, mother, nor friend.

Rocker (this is OK) that doesn't get along with bandmates, ex heroin addict, porn movie director, and as above just not that good at relationships.

Where does Faux find these women?

couldn't cut it in Hollywood (despite it having an abundance of untalented hacks). I'm sure that's why they're always talking shit about it. Because deep down that's where they think they belong.
