Dr. Helen: Man’s Best Friend
Look out, Ol’ Perfesser, Dr. Mrs. Ol’ Perfesser is on the prowl … for himbos!
What’s wrong with being a ‘himbo?’
… So, let’s get this straight. If women play the field, they are liberated. If men do the same, they are pigs with no self-respect.
I never quite thought of it that way. But only because that would fly in the face of long-standing sexual double standards as actually practiced in real life. So … my bad.
Give me a break. The guy who wrote the article is either jealous of these guys or has been so indoctrinated to telling females what they want to hear that he has to diss his own sex to make himself feel important.
How awful! Imagine devoting one’s life and career to bashing one’s own gender in a pathetic appeal to the opposite sex!
Either way, I say, if you’re male, single, and upfront with the women you date, let your inner himbo shine if you’re so inclined.
Rowr!
There are 3 truths in life: death, taxes, and if a wingnut describes something as “hate speech,” it won’t resemble anything close to “hate speech.
Surprisingly, there’s whining going on in Dr. Helen’s comments:

Absolutely unreal. As a prior poster said, I expected some “man as clown/idiot” stuff, nothing nearly as extreme as those two ads.
Dr Helen had a post a while back that asked “Where had all the Vikings gone?”. Well, I’ve spent the last 8 months working in Goteborg and my contract is ending in a couple weeks. I am absolutely DREADING dealing with American women for the next few months after my time in Sweden and my travels thru Europe. Yeah they’re socialists here, but dammit at least the (exceptionally beautiful 😀 ) women here don’t treat you with thinly-veiled contempt for being a dude like a large percentage of American women.
The attitude of the modern American woman is an anomally it seems, thank God. No wonder with garbage like this ad campaign.

Himbos for Jesus!
I love it when those World-Traveling Real American Men of High Standards (and Self-Esteem) report their inability to deal with American women. I have a feeling their exploits in foreign lands are similar to those who tell of that one summer at band camp and their girlfriend in Niagara Falls, Canada.
but dammit at least the (exceptionally beautiful 😀 ) women here don’t treat you with thinly-veiled contempt for being a dude like a large percentage of American women.
I’m guessing the American women knew you for more than 8 months.
I thought I was supposed to keep my inner himbo in reserve, in pristine condition, like a spare tire.
“bimbo” doesn’t mean “plays the field”
cleek, that’s exactly what I thought. In common parlance, bimbos aren’t loose, they’re just dumb, yes? So a himbo, it should follow, lacks intelligence, not modesty in re: sexual encounters.
But why bother with definitions when that’s just a minor point in the major fallacy?
Wheeee!!!!
Helen of Boy’s answer to Q1 – Liberals are just so mean to Sarah Palin.
Helen’s answer to Q4?
Next up – America’s only problem is that she’s much too nice to everybody in the world, which is why you should never vote for those meanies in the Democrat party.
I do not think “bimbo” means what she think it means.
If a “himbo” is a male bimbo, wouldn’t that apply to someone more like Confederate Yankee?
Why does Mrs. Ol’ Perfessur make me think of these punchlines?:
…I’ll make you feel like a real woman. Here, iron my shirt.
…but suck a few dicks..
…because there is a clock on the stove.
…so they can stand closer to the sink.
Perfect woman? Blind nymphomaniac that owns a liquor store.
But … but … who shall speak up for the men? Who shall give them a voice? When will the men have a say in the laws and rules that govern them? What shall be the price for us all if the men are not freed from their chains of bondage?
I wanted to coin the term wimbo for a wingnut-bimbo, but then realized that it’d be redundant.
Oh BTW, Dr. Helen, forensic psychologist – I’m sure you’ve heard of this thing called “Projection”:
Burn the jock straps! We shall storm the walls of Neiman Marcus! The chant of “we are men, damnit!” shall echo in their very ears!
Just think of how different the world would be if men were in control.
But … but … who shall speak up for the men? Who shall give them a voice? When will the men have a say in the laws and rules that govern them?
I dream of the day when a man may be elected president of the United States.
But … but … who shall speak up for the men? Who shall give them a voice? When will the men have a say in the laws and rules that govern them?
I dream of the day when a man can take a little pill for sexual potency, like a woman can.
Oh, wait…
Excuse me, but the correct term is mimbo.
Would you step off, Helen? Just step off.
Did anyone else hear a cougar call?
If women play the field, they are liberated. If men do the same, they are pigs with no self-respect.
On another planet, maybe, Dr Helen, but it’s as likely on this planet as people just being free to be liberated and explore their sexuality, full stop, in the face of judgemental assholes like yourself.
Either way, I say, if you’re male, single, and upfront with the women you date, let your inner himbo shine if you’re so inclined.
Get drunk! Say stupid shit like “If I told you you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me!” Grab her ass! Go ahead! BE A MAN!
But why bother with definitions when that’s just a minor point in the major fallacy?
I think she probably meant himbot. You know, something to match her husband’s proclivities for bimbots.
Dr. Helen: So, let’s get this straight. If women play the field, they are liberated.
Huh. The article Dr. Helen is bashing doesn’t say anything like that.
If anyone “plays the field” all that does is make them promiscuous. Liberation requires intention, something that can’t be discerned from simple observation of behavior. Some people are driven in that direction by personal insecurities, and while they might hide behind the mask of liberation, that’s far from the reason behind it.
Dr. Helen ought to understand this sort of stuff, right?
There’s a world of difference between liberation and “I’m schtuping whomever I can get my hands on because of my issues with my parents…”
If only we men had 1 or 2 representatives in Congress, or just 1 president, or just one judge sitting on a powerful court!
The article Dr. Helen is bashing doesn’t say anything like that.
But that’s central to her point!
Bernard Chapin – “women are now the new nobility in our society”
I don’t think Bernard’s world view was altered all that much to be honest.
[DrMOP]: Glenn, honey, we’ve been over this. I do this for research for my work.
[Glenn]: But, but…
[DrMOP]: These gorgeous, strapping, delicious young men need my help. They have to release their inner Himbo. I am there for them.
[Glenn]: But, but…
[Dr.MOP]: Honey, you know I have to see them in our bedroom so they can feel safe. And yes, we do get quite emotional, and yes I always finish a session with a prayer. That’s why you hear me say ‘Oh God, Oh GOD, YES YES YES!!!’ And sometimes these boys like to have a cigarette after our session. It helps calm them down.
[Glenn]: But, but…
[Dr.MOP]: Honey, I heard there’s a new upgrade for your little robot. Shouldn’t you go take care of that?
[Glenn]: Yay!
Wow. You can tell Dr. Helen is really burnt out on the whole “dressing up like a robot” thing.
Drat. stryx stole my schtick.
So, let’s get this straight. If women play the field, they are liberated.
Let’s clean up that syllogism:
Some women play the field
No woman can play the field while locked up in her master’s house
Women who are not locked up are liberated
Therefore, all women who play the field are liberated
Holy shit, Pammycakes is now claiming Obama is Malcom X’s son.
“play the field,” “pigs,” “liberation”…
Right on, babe! Looks like Dr. Helen lives on my turf. Probably just saw that nude Burt Reynolds spread in Cosmopolitan (Now there’s a “himbo”!)
Groovy!
OT- From the Functioning Glenn Reynolds Robot:
The Ole Perf and America’s Shittiest(TM) have been dishing out this line for a few weeks now. Palin will get 9-10K or so, and they’ll go bonkers about how great it is. Wow, fellers, that really puts Obama’s ONE HUNDRED FUCKING THOUSAND to shame.
Apart from the policies and the culture wars, one of the big things that’s turned me off about the McPalin movement is its ham-fisted storytelling abilities. As your 9th grade English teacher told you- Show. Don’t tell. Which is why wingnuts’ ubiquitous repetition of Everybody loves Sarah! Everybody loves Sarah! grinds my damn gears. Everybody does NOT love Sarah Palin. Her favorable numbers are a damn disaster, and she’s been an anchor on the campaign ever since the Folksy Coulter routine imploded on itself. If you don’t want to even begin to think about commencing to notice that, then it’s your loss. And McPalin’s, of course.
Loneoak, I clicked on that link. Jeebus knows I shouldn’t have, but I did anyway.
Pam has gone slightly past insane.
And yeah, wow. Pam is actually saying that. She’s actually saying Barack Obama is probably Malcom X’s son.
If he’s Malcolm X’s son that destroys their whole “not a citizen” shtick, doesn’t it?
So, I think maybe there’s one glitch in her theory: Would Malcolm X have been sleeping with random white Christian chicks from Kansas? Because of … um … his Islamic Black Nationalism?
Holy shit, Pammycakes is now claiming Obama is Malcom X’s son.
Wow. You’re not kidding. Oh, please, please, please, please PLEASE let some other wingnut sites pick this up and run with this. This is like adding at least three thousand whole new secret unexplored levels to the kazillion concentric circles of rightwing crazy.
Holy shit, Pammycakes is now claiming Obama is Malcom X’s son.
Sweet jebus she’s gone completely nuts, if that was possible. Notify the DSM committee, we have a whole new diagnostic category.
That post of hers is huge. It took a long time and lots of work to write all that. If Pammy is manic/depressive she is definitely at peak mania right now. Can a full psychotic break be far behind?
Pammycakes is now claiming Obama is Malcom X’s son.
and she’s basing it on the fact that she thinks Obama and X look alike. i’m sure she thinks they all look alike.
We would sincerely like to request that you refrain from slandering us by using the term “batsh*t” in context of Pam and her theories of the Obama/X lineage.
Let us assure you that even batsh*t is astonished by that level of insanity.
Thank you.
Pam’s Current Frame of Mind
Wow, I was going to say that this, from Dr. Helen, was the stupidest argument ever made in history:
I was recently watching TV and saw two commercials back to back. One was advertising diaper-like underwear for five or six year old kids who wet the bed–they showed three boys having a spend the night and one of them was (gasp!) a bed-wetter. The next commercial showed a teenage boy stripping off clothing to indicate doing away with his drug habit. So in the space of five minutes, I learned that boys are nothing but bed-wetters or drug addicts.
But then I read that Pam thing. My Lord, that woman needs help.
Perfect woman? Blind nymphomaniac that owns a liquor store.
An’ uh wahd scree-un tuh-eevee. An’ uh greeeyul.
Bimbo plus himbo plus limo equals LIMBO!
Or something like that.
Herbos are nasty.
So, I think maybe there’s one glitch in her theory: Would Malcolm X have been sleeping with random white Christian chicks from Kansas? Because of … um … his Islamic Black Nationalism?
Duh, that is a very common method of “sticking it to the man” by sticking their women!
Did these evil feminist commercials air before or after every single Axe commercial in existence?
It’s a neat trick when you simply invert reality (men are punished for being promiscuous, women are rewarded) and then feign outrage at the fake world you’ve created.
You mean we aren’t all being oppressed by a handful of sometimes-obnoxious feminists with no actual political power or cultural leverage? In what respect, Charlie?
Why did Pammy go over the edge? In her own words:
So these are the things she can’t believe:
1. A teen-aged girl from the mid-west, noted for being especially head-strong, gets pregnant in her first month of university.
2. She drops out of college after missing two or possibly three periods (she gives date of conception as Nov 2 and dropping out as early January)
3. Even though the seventeen year-old girl said “I don’t need to date or marry to have children” in the summer after her graduation, when actually with child she decides to get married anyways.
Holy Fuck! Those things are clearly “unlikely” and “implausible”.
The whole UofWash. thing is based on the brilliant insight that you can’t give birth in Hawai’i on Aug. 4 and start school thousands of miles away a month later (but giving birth in Kenya doesn’t share this problem).
More Pammy:
Umm, Pam – I’ve got a more plausible theory for you: U R DOIN’ IT WRNOG!
That Dr. Helen sounds like another advice columnist so beloved by S,N!
Has anybody ever seen Alkon Of The Seven Testicles and Helen together?
They don’t look alike, but you’d be surprised what they can do with latex these days. They made Peter Graves look like Tom Cruise!
Well, I always thought the correct term for male bimbo was mimbo. I need to get current.
Seriously, is a fucking link to Instapundit in the first sentence absolutely necessary? Are you worried about improper sourcing or something?
Me ‘n my girl named Bimbo Limbo Spam.
So, let’s get this straight. If women play the field, they are liberated.
Precisely, because there’s no crying in baseball.
That screed by P. Geller, Investigative Journalist, reminds me of this passage by Hofstadter:
Highbrow, lowbrow, middlebrow, and, of course, pambrow.
Oh my gawd, we’ve been pwned by booger/teh Troof:
It looks like Obama is in trouble in the traditional blue states of Virginia and Colorado!
VA-Pres Obama (D) 51%, McCain (R) 47%
Oct 30 Marist
CO-Pres Obama (D) 51%, McCain (R) 45%
Oct 30 Marist
Because, hummmaduh hummmaduh, Obama can’t get to 52%, and this is all he’s gonna get!
And yeah, wow. Pam is actually saying that. She’s actually saying Barack Obama is probably Malcom X’s son.
She should stick to posing semi-naked for calendars.
She can’t even figure out how a person could be in Seattle and Hawaii in the same month.
Well, um, you know, Pammy, even in 1960, there were these things called “aeroplanes”…they weren’t that fast, but it sure beat taking a boat. Even the US Navy had them!
If Pammy is manic/depressive she is definitely at peak mania right now. Can a full psychotic break be far behind?
Please. It would take a truly traumatic event for that to happen, something whollly implausible, like, say, a Negro winning the…
Oh.
Pammycakes is now claiming Obama is Malcom X’s son. and she’s basing it on the fact that she thinks Obama and X look alike.
Probably also because she read somewhere that Barry Hussein’s last name is X, just like Malcolm’s.
The old perfesser and frau are trying now to position themselves as “reasonable” conservatives. Don’t buy it. Not being crazy like Malkin and her kind isn’t good enough for us to listen to them. They must also have things worth saying.
“Can a full psychotic break be far behind?”
I’d expect it to come in oh, five days or so.
I posted a little rebuttal of important facts to that male pity party. I’m predicting more emotional histrionics.
Whoah, slow on the uptake today. I only just noticed what the post title was saying. Apparently, Dr. Helen is the new black.
If women play the field, they are liberated.
What universe does this woman live on? Where I and everyone else come from, women who “play the field” are commonly known as “sluts.” It’s a linchpin in the victimization of women, the furious vindictiveness over their sexuality, that has been going on since pretty much caveman days, and that fools like Dr. Mrs. Ole Perfesser refuse to acknowledge.
Speaking on behalf of anyone else whose surname begins with the letters B, I and M, I would shed few tears if the world ‘bimbo’ was forcibly extirpated from the English language.
Wait, you’re Clyde Bimmler? Small world.
Sometimes I look at Dr. H.’s blog out of morbid curiosity. She seems like she’s smart, you know, and she’s nice looking and everything. Most of all, one imagines that the work she claims she does would inspire some humanity and compassion. So why is she so bitter, and so mean? More to the point, what the fuck is wrong with these people???
