Dr. Phil, you're still a misogynistic ASSSSS.

Not that I or anyone should be surprised.  Why do I subject myself to this?  Oh, right.  Because I'm bored and I don't have cable.

So TODAY on Dr. Phil, the topic was his boast that he could "negotiate ANYTHING".  Right, this is going good places.  I mostly tuned it out, but one couple, and that assbag's handling of the situation, made me want to throw things and punch the TV.

Their issue: organ donation.

A woman had herself signed up for the donation, in the event of her death, of every part of her body that was viable for medical transplant.  But her husband was "uncomfortable" with it, so Dr. Phil had him say what parts in the donation process made him most uncomfortable, and had the wife agree to alter her donor status so that those parts wouldn't be harvested.

Yes, that's right.  Pick your jaws back up.  THAT is what transpired.

No "Your wife's body is her property, and hers to do with in death, as in life, as she sees fit.  Now here's a video montage of people telling us how their lives where improved or even saved by the donation of organs and tissues by wonderful people like your wife."  NO, that didn't happen.  There was no defense WHATSOEVER of this woman's RIGHT to use her body, in death, to help as many people as possible.  No crucial iteration of the fact that, as his wife would be DEAD and her parts would be USELESS and WASTED if she altered her donor status to make him feel less "uncomfortable".  NICE WORK ASS HAT MCGRAW, YOU LAZY FUCK.

I'm sure the people the wife was willing to help with her organ donations sure are happy that her husband feels less "uncomfortable" now.

Not to mention the LITERAL OWNERSHIP of the woman's body being partly awarded to the husband here.  FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...

*gets too angry to finish this entry and books tickets to LA so I can repeatedly hoof Dr. Phil in the groin IN PERSON*  D:< *

*Okay not really.  But thinking about it is cheering me greatly.
