No, the way “Dr.” Laura talks to women on her show, the verbage in her books, they way even the women’s advice sections are clearly there to scold the bad girls... her overall treatment and attitude towards other women.

As opposed to much conventional modern psychotherapy that scolds no one and affirms dysfunctional behavior. This is a recipe for generating a never-ending flow of clients, not truly helping to solve anyone's problems.

What I have found is that people who hate Dr. Laura really just have an aversion to the traditional values that she puts forth.

She treats her gender with scorn and contempt.

No, she treats with contempt the femniac lie that only socialization makes women and men different.

And for such a vile woman, her radio show is consistently ranked among the top 5 in the nation--even after the radical homos tried to have her thrown off the air. Somebody must be listening to her.

Not so. Dr. Laura has done a world of good with some of her advice, but when it comes to the current subject, she is very much like the girl in junior high or high school we all knew who stuck it to the girls so the boys would like her.

By the way, I still boycot Proctor & Gamble products because of what the company did to her when she was putting together her TV show. I have no "aversion" to her traditional values. On the contrary.

Never said no one was listening to her....people watch Jerry Springer, trainwrecks and boils being lanced.

Doesn’t mean she’s good, just mean she’s hard not to notice.
As for traditional values-—

Gee, you mean the value of implying you are a Dr. when your degree has nothing to do with your current vocation? Or having an affair with a married man that led to the end of his marriage? Or posing for nude pictures? Or being totally estranged from your blood kin?

She sounds like a paragon of conservative values all right!!!

Or biggest of all, not demanding that people be responsible for their own behaviors while feeding egos those she wants to impress.
