Lifetime, the "men are evil" channel. Haven't seen my favorite Spike channel show in a while. Hope they bring it back. It's the ultimate man show ever made. You want answers, watch "Manswers!"
Your testosterone level will spike with the show's opening.
Well - my teen-ager refers to it as the 'man-hating' channel. So, that's definitely the perception. I rarely watch it.
I call it the cheesy channel.
Seriously though, anyone can spin Lifetime in any direction. Women are constantly getting murdered, beaten, or cheated on the films they air, if anything it's misogynistic. See how I spun that
No televison for men? Have you ever watched Spike? Or something called ESPN? Geeze you people make me wonder sometimes, do you really sit at home and wonder: Is life time sexist, I mean really.
After all - their tagline used to be "television for women" - and they still do aim for a female target audience.
Why is there no "television for men"?
Also, why do many of Lifetime's movies seem to portray women as crime victims?
Isn't that a negative portrayal of women - and wouldn't it be better to broadcast programs that present women as strong, capable, and independent?
Spike (TV channel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia you'll see that it was targeted for men and as long as it's a private company no, if either were gov't owned then yes but you can start cooking networks, soap networks, sports networks even say it's for men...which some of the Spike tv commercials originally did but it's not a big deal as long as it's private organizations it's not illegal...for example even if people like it or don't like it the boy scouts can decide to not let gays in...
Men specifically watch and follow sports at a much higher rate than women. Male sports are disproportionately covered and featured on ESPN. (This only makes sense since men are their primary target audience and men overwhelmingly prefer male sports to female sports.) Also much of their advertising is directed at men, specifically men in the 18-40 year old demographic.
