'You have got to fix yourself up - look pretty, look alert:' Christian conservative T.V. host Pat Robertson blames 'awful-looking' women for failed marriages
If your husband isn't paying attention to you, it's probably because you don't look 'pretty' and 'alert,' according to evangelical talk show host Pat Robertson.
At least that's what Robertson told his viewers recently, using an anecdote from a fellow preacher to illustrate his point.
'A woman came to a preacher I know its so funny,' said Robertson, host of the 700 Club. 'She was awful-looking. Her hair was all torn up, she was overweight and looked terrible, clothes bad and everything, and she said, "Oh Reverend, what can I do? My husband has started to drink."

- A married woman has an argument with her husband at home
- The next day, a male co-worker tells her she looks pretty
- She files for divorce the next day
Is this over-simplified? LOL And yes, I am enjoying this thread.
Wow....this is hysterical...LOL
“Well most liberal women are pretty ugly because the ugly inside seeps to the outside by the time they start hitting their mid 30s...”
Reminds me of something George Carlin once said:
‘You ever notice that the women who support abortion and birth control are so ugly you wouldn’t want to f*** them anyway?’
Crude, but treu and he said this at least 30 years ago.
And ladies, dont forget the Botox.
That guy is creepy.
I agree, women need to look their best for the hubs....and the men need to do the same for their wives.
And we all need to realize things change with age.
Hey, you were married to my husbands’ first wife, too?
Duhhh-Heeeeeeee-Herrrrrrrr
What Carlin actually said was that "the only people who want to ban abortion are people you wouldn't want to f*** anyway." You have him exactly backwards.
It's just Pat Robertson, don't let it get to you. This is the guy who thinks Haitians swore a pact to the devil which has caused all their natural disasters since. Pat wouldn't be Pat if he didn't say goofy things now again, no one takes them seriously (anymore).
I can’t take issue with anything he said on this, but I know a lot of folks out there will dismiss it simply because he’s Pat Robertson.
'And the preacher looked at her and he said: "Madam, if I were married to you, I'd start to drink too."
How can you argue against that?? And folks think guys drink beer for its taste........
They CAN with enough beer.........Where you been?
Yup, that’s the one. :-). Fortunately, I met wife version 2 and have had ten years of wedded bliss.
A very real danger for any man who marries a woman with a career.
Worse, is if the woman is in denial that male workplace "coworkers" or "friends" might ever become more that that.
I worked at a place which employed 5000 people, so I observed a lot of people. What was impossible to ignore was when a woman employee was getting divorced, the change in her appearance was striking! In almost all cases, she lost weight, spruced up her hairdo and makeup, and bought better clothes. I am thinking why did’nt she do those things while she was married? If she had, would she be still married?
I could swear that’s what I heard but I’ll take your word for it. Thanks.
The hottest girl I’ve ever met wasn’t that pretty but presented herself that way and became pretty in the process.
Having men come home to a bitchy sweathog appears to be the objective of the left.
lol....is that why the Muslims prefer to keep their women uneducated and in Burkha when going out?
Dog track time
