Texas school hires Christian motivational speaker whose misogyny is so egregious that he ends up getting mocked by the students.

Courtesy of WFAA:  

His speech was supposed to be thought-provoking, but it has turned some parents and students to anger. 

Justin Lookadoo was the guest at a student assembly at Richardson High School. But the Christian motivational speaker, hired by the PTA, instead faced harsh criticism from students after the event. 

Students circled around the speaker and hurled questions about his philosophies. 

"Why did you tell girls to get out of abusive relationships instead of telling guys not to be abusive in the first place?" one student asked. 

"I've done about 4,000 programs. That's never happened," Lookadoo confessed. 

Dr. Jaime Clark-Soles, mother of a RHS student and a professor at Southern Methodist University, said Lookadoo "lacks the qualifications to speak on the subject."

A quick check of this guy's website reveals that not only is he unqualified but that his advice to teens is from the 50's. The 1850's.

Here are his "Dateable Girl Rules."  

  1. Accept your girly-ness. You’re a girl. Be proud of all that means. You are soft, you are gentle, you are a woman. Don’t try to be a guy. Guys like you because you are different from them. So let your girly-ness soar. 
  2. Tell it like it is. Dateable girls don’t lie to themselves. They don’t say stuff like, “His girlfriend just isn’t good to him, that’s why he’s seeing me on the side.” Or “She started it so I’m going to get even.” The Dateable girl let’s God run the world, and tells herself the truth–that all she can control is herself. She doesn’t imagine things to be more than they are. 
  3. The sexiest thing on a girl is happiness. Girls try so hard to add beauty and sexuality to themselves with clothes and make-up, but the truth is it’s your spirit that makes you hot. Your outlook on life, your happiness factor. Dateable girls aren’t downers, they love life. 
  4. Girls don’t fight girls, ever. Revenge belongs to God. Dateable girls know that when they fight other girls they look stupid and catty, and guys don’t like it any more than God does. Believe in your beauty. Dateable girl learn how to overcome the sins of the past that have been perpetrated on them. They don’t let the enemy steal their beauty. God made them, so they know they are beautiful, even if they don’t feel like it sometimes.
  5. Be mysterious. Dateable girls know how to shut up. They don’t monopolize the conversation. They don’t tell everyone everything about themselves. They save some for later. They listen more than they gab. 
  6. Act confident. Dateable girls know that confidence is hot. And the cool part is that no one knows if you are confident but you. Confidence isn’t how you feel, it’s how you act. Act confident and people will think you are. 
  7. Look ‘em in the eye. Part of being a Dateable girl means you really see people. They matter, and if you don’t look them in the eye then you will never see them and they will never know they matter to you. Look ‘em in the eye. They are valuable. 
  8. Let him lead. God made guys as leaders. Dateable girls get that and let him do guy things, get a door, open a ketchup bottle. They relax and let guys be guys. Which means they don’t ask him out!!! 
  9. Need him. Dateable girls know that guys need to be needed. A Dateable girl isn’t Miss Independent. She knows we are made for community. Needing each other is part of faith. She allows him to be needed at times, knowing he was called to serve just as much as she was.

So essentially if you are a girl you need to resist the urge to think for yourself be completely obedient to your male betters, and keep your bitchy "ate the apple in the Garden of Eden" mouth shut.

And what are the "Dateable Boy Rules?" Glad you asked:

  1. Being a guy is good. Dateable guys know they aren’t as sensitive as girls and that’s okay. They know they are stronger, more dangerous, and more adventurous and that’s okay. Dateable guys are real men who aren’t afraid to be guys. 
  2. Believe in yourself. Dateable guys know they are men even if someone has tried to bring them down or make them less than men. They know that the past doesn’t define the future. 
  3. Control your mind. Dateable guys know that God demands self control. They learn ways to control their minds so they can control their bodies. 
  4. Don’t just want a win, want an adventure. Dateable guys know life is about danger. You might not win, but that’s not the point, doing it is. Dateable guys risk failure to live the adventure of life. 
  5. Face your Fears. Dateable guys will not be controlled by fear. Whatever controls you owns you. Fear is from the enemy and so the Dateable guy stands in the face of it and says, “ha!” 
  6. Men of God are wild, not domesticated. Dateable guys aren’t tamed. They don’t live by the rules of the opposite sex. They fight battles, conquer lands, and stand up for the oppressed. 
  7. Bring God into it. Dateable guys bring God into it. “What would He say if he was talking to me through this situation?” they ask. 
  8. Be honest with girls. Dateable guys don’t use the truth to their advantage. They know that girls read into things so they don’t use that for their good. They are honest and not manipulative. 
  9. Be a gentleman. Chivalry is not dead with the Dateable guy. Even if society thinks this is old fashioned he knows that it is God-fashioned. He keeps his gentleman side strong and considers all women important enough to care for. 
  10. Keep it covered up. Dateable guys know that porn is bad for the spirit and the mind. They keep women covered up.
So essentially it says being a guy is the best, much better than being some ridiculous girl, so be aggressive, dominate your women, oh and don't look at porn. It is so much better to date rape the submissive girls you meet anyhow.

Thankfully it appears, that even in Texas, the youth of America, at least those attending public school, are just a little too sophisticated to fall for that woman suppressing bullshit anymore.

Good to know.

    I saw this story online yesterday and took the "dateable girl" quiz on his website. I failed the test the first time, even though I chose carefully to avoid being talkative to the guy--reverting to the 1950s all the way.

    So I repeated the damn test and chose FALSE every frickin’ time, and I passed the test!

    Later, I noticed the boys version of the stupid quiz. I'm a glutton for punishment; what can I say..... The first time I took a quick run at it and did all answers as “true” and failed.

    Then I did all “false”, and guess whut? I passed. I was SO proud when it told me: “You da man! But don’t get cocky. You have to be tough and keep hanging on to self-control. You are totally focused the right way. Keep it up!”

    That whole thing is total bullshit.

    ...Just like Lookadouche himself and anyone who thinks he knows anything about relationships other than Neanderthal ones.

    They put just a hint of actual truth in there to confuse the non-critical immature thinker. Yes, you should embrace being a woman, and not lie, and true beauty needs no makeup and look people in the eye. But the rest is pure manipulative BS.

      He definitely has that "middle aged guy trying to blend in at a highschool party" vibe goin'. Someone should be keeping an eye on this guy, not inviting him into contact with teenagers.

    Look,ADick looks like a cross between Guy Fieri and a sock monkey. I'm almost afraid to ask if he does Xtian kid's BD parties and want to stick hot pokers in my eyes after reading his "rules". The oldest teen advice book I have in my kitsch library isn't even THAT ass backward!

    So basically this idiot is telling females to be something they are not in order to get a date. And they have to act like the one who asked them out is just so wonderful. What a load of crap. Good for the students for calling this idiot out. How much did the school have to pay for this bullshit?

    What Will It Take to Get a Woman in the White House?

    ...It does seem a bit crazy when you think of it: When so many other nations have women presidents, why doesn’t the United States? Margaret Thatcher was elected prime minister of Great Britain three times. Argentina, Iceland, the Philippines, Nicaragua, Ecuador, Finland, Ireland, Liberia, Chile, and South Korea have elected female heads of state. Yet the United States, presumably one of the most progressive countries in the world, lags dismally behind. We have finally elected an African American president; when will we celebrate that same milestone for women?

    "Let him lead. God made guys as leaders."

    I'm a little ashamed of my sudden need to reach through the net and throttle this guy.

    Of course, girls and young women hear that message incessantly, but it's not usually worded so blatantly.

    June 25, 2014: UPDATE!!!

    It is reported that ALLEGEDLY - according to http://www.courierpress.com/news/2014/jun/24/lookadoo-arrested/ Justin Lookadoo was BUSTED!

    From the link:

    "A nationally known youth motivational speaker scheduled to talk on Tuesday to attendees at a Youth Resources of Southwestern Indiana middle school camp was instead booked into the Vanderburgh County Jail on suspicion of public intoxication.

    Justin F. Lookadoo, 44, of McKinney, Texas, whose website says his “goal is to help teens make wise choices that will set them up for success in life,” was arrested after authorities found him inside a vehicle that pulled over on the shoulder of Interstate 164 around the 13-mile-marker just before midnight Monday."

    Nationally Known? Ok. That's a nice way to put it.
