Why do magazines employ utter morons to dish out agony "aunt" advice?

[QUOTE="HypocritelQuiteBent, post: 2162069, member: 765627"] 'Zoo magazine has apologised for an agony uncle column under actor Danny Dyer's byline that advised a reader to cut his ex-girlfriend's face. Alex, 23, from Manchester, wrote to the publication aimed at young men saying he was unable to get over a break-up. Dyer's column's advice was to go on the "rampage" with the boys or "cut your ex's face, then no-one will want her". Zoo blamed the comments on a production error, but anti-violence campaigners said the advice was "inexcusable". Refuge CEO Sandra Horley said: "It is all too easy to dismiss comments like these as a joke, but we know that domestic violence takes lives and ruins lives. "Two women are killed every week by a current or former partner - and these figures aren't going down. "One in eight young men believe it is OK to hit their girlfriend if she is nagging."' http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8663975.stm And why do so many men think they are men, by hitting their partners?
