Todd Harris Goldman is an American entrepreneur/artist. He designed "boy-bashing" slogans seen on t-shirts, bumper stickers, and other accessories.

Goldman has stated that "The reason we have boys [on the shirts] is that our customers are teenage girls." The slogans have attracted negative press, but Goldman has responded with a feint, stating "I couldn't pay for this press."

[edit] Controversy and Criticism

Goldman was named as number 97 on Bernard Goldberg's list of 100 People Who Are Screwing Up America. Goldberg criticized Goldman's slogans for being part of a current boy-bashing craze, while the makers don't realize (or don't care) that young men have higher rates of depression and suicide than young girls in America. Goldman welcomed the criticism and replied that "He hopes to be ranked higher next year."
