A channel that showcases white people doing stupid, sick, crude, weird, crazy things, including suburban secrets type of situations and the opposite of what minorities do.
On Lifetime, I have seen a movie "Perfect Husband: The Scott Peterson Story", one movie that deals with a victim being abused as a child, a father who's a perverted pig, alcoholic redneck inbred wifebeating husband who's also mean to his children, kids doing drugs, a sick man arrested for sex-related offenses such as child molestation or kiddie porn (John Mark Karr), killing a child (Richard Allen Davis), killing a wife (Scott Peterson), killing their own relatives, Yearning for Zion Ranch in Texas in 2008 where women and children were abused, incest, etc. To put it in a simpler way, this is what you get when you put together Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Melrose Place, Desperate Housewives, City Confidential, Silk Stalkings and Suburban Secrets. Things you NEVER see in the real movies, except for Monster, the biopic of serial killer Eileen Wournos. There was no movie about Richard Allen Davis or John Mark Karr, but those names are used as examples of the sick things that happen. Lifetime channel is somewhat of an exploitation channel.

The rape channel. If you see a woman on Lifetime, sometime within the next 30 minutes she's going to get raped. I'm not making light of rape, but Lifetime is just ridiculous.

a bad channel that "inspires" women with stories about women with breast cancer that were molested as a child getting beat up by their alcoholic unemployed mullet husband.

The battered woman channel.
Nothing wrong with a channel for women, but it seems this network is run by men-hating extreme feminists.

A depressing tv network which hurts women more than pure misogyny with its mindnumbing, predictable shows about women who get beaten, raped, abducted by aliens, committed to mental hospitals, sexually harassed, brainwashed, etc.

1) A television channel where people immediately skip it as they channel surf to watch better programming. Where women watch awful shows and movies, as a form of escape and source of drama or excitement that they might be lacking their lives.
2) The only channel run by close-minded idiots. Just watching five minutes of a show/movie in Lifetime makes you wonder, if the CEO is a feminazi.The plots consist of a teenage girl or woman who is being mistreated and abused by men. For some reason, men are always pure evil, abusive druggies who cheat and rape, while women are always kind angels who can never do any wrong. The women are portrayed as innocent, fragile creatures and act annoying and pathetic, because they are "dramatically victimized" by men. In the end, the woman overcomes her fears of her oppressor (men), and becomes a "hero" for many other women. Other plots in Lifetime shows/movies also consist of women dying from a terminal disease, their families getting killed, or them ending up in a coma. In the end, Lifetime gives a bad example to women by giving misconceptions of men being scumbags and pigs.
