What Misoginistic mean?

[PsychDoctorate]

@TashaRichardsonFan1 Misoginistic refers to the hatred and dislike of women. It is more often a trait associated with men than women.

[TimeStrider]

L. Ron Hubbard is arguably the most famous - or infamous - of the people noted here, and for pretty obvious, and well-known reasons. What baffles me though is how Tony Robbins made the cut since I've never read anything even remotely negative about the guy.

@TimeStrider Tony Robbins is more of a showman than a true manipulator. His works, which are very expensive, can be learned almost completely by reading and appplying principles from people like Dale Carnegie and other true leaders. He appeals to emotions, not to rational sense, but emotions are much easier to manipulate than reasoning. Robbins does not like critics and has tried to quiet a few, and he does not respond well to them either. Still he is not like Hubbard or others.

@lalo4532 Robbins is more like Gray, Histrionic. They are quite different than Narcissists and Anti-Socials, but they still can be manipulative to get what they desire, namely that of attention.

Hahahahaha reading skirts's comments :) That was funny - it literally made no sense whatsoever. Thanks for the laugh!

@skirts365 Oh, by the way, since you continue to spout verbal vomit and opinions and refuse to go at my arguments or truly back yours up with anything, I am ending this pedantic little diatribe. You are showing me you can't back up anything.

@skirts365 Cornered? Boy are you ignorant. There a whole host of mental health issues anyone can face. Ever hear of PTSD? I would personally rather go to a mental health professional who has had to deal with some personal life issue rather than someone who has never had to deal with anything.

@skirts365 Cornered? Boy are you ignorant. There a whole host of mental health issues anyone can face. Ever hear of PTSD? The right "traumatic" circumstances can do it to anyone! I would personally rather go to a mental health professional who has had to deal with some personal life issue rather than someone who has never had to deal with anything. Makes them more compassionate.
