http://wonkette.com/585794/the-submissive-wives-of-tlc-would-be-more-than-happy-to-make-you-a-sammich



“If you are a strong woman, you can submit to your man.”

This potent message of female empowerment comes to us from Tara Furman, one of the stars of an exciting new TLC special rolling out this Sunday night. The network responsible for such radical re-interpretations of the American family as My Husband’s Not Gay and Sarah Palin’s Alaska stands ready to spice up your weekend with Submissive Wives’ Guide to Marriage.

It is not very far from submissive wife to baseball bat. The baseball bat is merely a metaphor for a beaten wife who won't submit.

It is a horrible idea. Put on by TLC, The Learning Channel? What are we to learn by this shit?
