Spotify legitimizes the mistreatment of women by broadcasting 'dangerously misogynistic' material from Andrew Tate, critics warned last night.
Tate, 38 – who is confronted with charges in Romania for rape, human trafficking and women sexually operating – is previously banned from social media, including Facebook and Instagram for his views.
He compared women with dogs and said that victims of sexual violence bear some responsibility. “
The concern about his influence grew last week after it appeared that Kyle Clifford, who was imprisoned for life for raping and killing his ex-girlfriend and the killing of her sister and mother, looked in one of Tate's videos in advance.
But it has now emerged that Spotify – the world's leading streaming service for audio content – still contains its podcasts, including 'courses' on dating ladies.
One, 'Pimpin' Hoes', which is said to take advantage of the exploitation of women, was removed from the site after a recoil from campaigners and the own staff of Spotify.
However, the post on Sunday has discovered that several others who encourage men to control and mistreat women are still available.
In one entitled 'How to be a g', Tate men says that they can acquire a 'harem of women', claiming: 'Women are organized biologically to share their husbands.

'It is absolutely normal for men to have more than one woman. You have no reason to apologize for your biology as a man. '
A second called 'How to Get Girls Fast and Easy by Andrew Tate (PhD Course)' refers to women like 'Teven' and tells men how they focus on social media on informal sex.
The former kickboxer, who has British and American citizenship, insists that women want to be ordered, adding: 'Women like to be led, they don't like to be asked … they want to hear what they have to do.
'A woman who understands, friendly and respects does not exist – unless you force her. A woman must learn that her husband is an iron mountain and the easiest path is to obey. '

Last night, women's rights groups criticized Spotify and demanded that it removed all Tate podcasts.
Cathy Larkman, from the Women's Rights Network, said: 'Spotify helps to identify and validate these views and let these men benefit. It is frightening to think what impact this could have. '
Kruti Walsh, from the charity Filia, said, “It is disgusting that Spotify, and others, benefits from this misogyny.”
Spotify refused to comment.
