Rush pinpoints cause of Weiner's indiscretion: Oppressive liberal women

As more and more incriminating photos surface of Democratic New York Rep. Anthony Weiner’s indiscretions, some in the media are posing the question – would the country be better led if there were more women in politics?

Such was the topic of discussion on Sunday’s “This Week” on ABC, which a roundtable panel with  host Christiane Amanpour, former first lady of France Cecilia Attias, former President George H.W. Bush administration staffer Torie Clarke and ABC national correspondent and wife of White House press secretary Jay Carney, Claire Shipman asked if this were an opportunity for the female sex to make inroads into politics.

However, conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh looked to debunk that theory and had his own idea of what caused someone like Weiner to act the way he did. On his Monday show, he explained what his view of feminism was – to undermine the role of men in society.

“So the assumption is that it goes back to one of the early periods of feminism,” Limbaugh said. “Fathers, men were natural predators. That they really had no redeeming qualities – that the purpose of women was to tame them, socialize them.  If you pointed that out, they really hated you, even though those are the circumstances they set up, the only conclusion you could come to, based on the criteria they set forth.”

And according to Limbaugh, since Weiner has been surrounded by women with those ideas in mind, it has affected his behavior.

“Here’s the thing – I wonder why is it that Anthony Weiner turns out to be the kind of guy he is?” Limbaugh said. “If we’re going to bring this stuff up folks – let’s talk about it. Let’s bring it up. Who, what kind of women has Anthony Weiner been around his whole life? He has been around a bunch of these kinds of women that have been attacking testosterone, who have been attacking traditional male roles. He had been around women who the idea of a real guy is some metrosexual. Is it any wonder ladies and gentlemen – I wonder if it occurs to Claire Shipman or Torie Clarke that Weiner did what he did because he’s been surrounded with them like them for his whole adult life.”

Limbaugh pointed out how this sentiment has seeped into pop culture as well. He noted the increase in the number of sitcoms where the men in the shows are “beaten down into panty-waist milquetoast wimps.”

But as it relates to Weiner, Limbaugh says that conventional wisdom blaming testosterone has it wrong.

Does Rogaine really work? Is there any other hair restoration ...

Some of my patients have used it. It works for some it doesn’t (in terms of long term). Short term use it does work (6 months at most).

Currently the best way is to get a plastic surgeon (a skilled one that is). Is to remove a man’s back hair, cut about 5-18 slits in the head (number of slits varies on how close man is to balding). And then doing some types of stitching to complete it. So far, most people who have had this type of cosmetic procedure are successful in having full head of hair that resembles their early 20s. Currently there is Plastic Surgeon who is milking this technique in California and Toronto. But he has hundreds of consulting offices around the world (last time i checked it was 120)

It really works; thus the FDA approval. Being old enough to remember it going through the approval process, I am also old enough to have lost a lot of hair. My thoughts from experience are – age with dignity, not vanity. Don’t worry about your hair; in the end you have to accept the aging process, and drugs and transplants don’t fully replace your hair any more than you get to be 23 again. Also, a wife who’s obviously still very attracted to you does wonders for the self-esteem. Finally, I don’t think self-esteem ought to come mostly from one’s hair.
