This is the bullshit ad they have plastered all over our student agendas. I understand that free agendas mean advertising. Bulk Barn, Rogers, phone cards? Fine. Reasonable. THAT is such utter harmful crap.

I may be missing something, and I admit I haven't looked closely at the website, but how is a website of dating tips harmful?

Because they are based off of stereotypes? Because they are stupid and asinine "tips"? Because pretending to be nice and ACTUALLY being nice are two different things and people can usually sniff out the "fake" vibe pretty easily?

The guy who wrote all the articles for guys published one of the two most well-known "seduction" how-to's. It's a trainer on exploitative psychology and the manipulation of women's emotions. One of the guy's basic principles is to not get involved in relationships, because you sleep with less people that way.

Which is to say, it's demeaning; I want a golf-club and an interview with'm.

Look at the content of the website. Just look at it.
