What Patti Says...

"The Millionaire Matchmaker" is doing it again. Patti Stanger is making comments that offend groups that probably watch her show: women, gay men, and Jewish men.
 I've seen "The Millionaire Matchmaker" and sometimes I find Patti's advice a little bit too much. No one can always look a certain way, behave in such a way that attracts the right person, and leave their foot out of their mouth.  I mean, look at the Presidential Race, and that should give you some idea of what I mean.
 Patti isn't always wrong though. She does help her clients with severe emotional problems receive advice, therapy, and counsel. And sometimes there are clients who need to change their approach because either it's too docile or too aggressive, but her comments last night were over the top.
 Saying that gay couples can't handle monogamy- without anything to back her up but personal experience is wrong. The only people gay or straight who know if they can handle monogamy are the people themselves. And even then some people spend a long time defining monogamy within their relationship. But to generalize is to err and in television to err in this way is not human but inhumane.
But what really should make everyone mad is her comments about single women in Manhattan. She implied that some women are too smart with men and that because these men are dumb, they should be treated as such.
 This statement should offend anyone. Why? Because she inevitably says that women have to be someone their not to get someone they should be lucky enough to get. I think that's all wrong. If you're smart be smart, don't overcompensate for the fact that you meet someone who can't understand how you operate. People who play pretend, never really end up happy.
 And for someone who's job is to make sure people are happy, she should know this above anything else.
