Really, she's shocked to learn that you can now buy Barbie dolls with breasts. Also, did you get a load of the honkers on that Cape Cod hit-and-run suspect? Quick, somebody get Margery some smelling salts.

It's pretty telling that all she cares about is how women look, and not what they've achieved, a la her diatribe against Williams.

Funny she uses Williams as an example.
Wonder if she'd be surprised to learn that the puritanical views she has are rather recent things. And that the Romans and Greeks, probably the first to create modern sporting events, did their thing in the nude.
Love the first comment at the Herald.
Yup is this news. She gets paid for this dribble, yet the papers wonder why they're failing?
"dribble"?

Actually, she reported being shocked by the dolls coming with clothing that reveals those breasts. You're being unfair, or are scoring low on reading comprehension.
No, I get that

And I get the overall angst about crappy Bratz dolls and sexualization of 7-year-olds (as in that video of little girls shakin' it to "Single Ladies").
But Barbie? Really? I wasn't aware that up until now Barbies only came in burqas melded to their bodies so that little girls (and boys, let's not kid ourselves) couldn't take them off and see what's underneath.

Yes, but this one is a little over the top. The story is all over the place - and they say it's meant as a collector's doll, not for little girls.

Poor Margery!
Rusty Warren is a contemporary of Margery's sensibilities. Maybe her famous song, played to this poor pearl-clutching woman on her fainting couch, will help?
Is this the same chick that wrote about groping on the T?

As I recall, she was practically begging for some dude to grind on her a couple of years ago. Strange, oversexed lady.
And the airport!

She was up in arms a couple of years ago, too, about a woman who claimed the TSA female agent wanding her (in public, at the security gate) got grope-y. I think the passenger also ranted about how the wanding upset her toddler, too. The way Eagan clutched her pearls, she seemed to think this meant all TSA agents are child-hating perverts. Her outrage button has been stuck in the "on" position for years.

"How much richer would the girls’ play be if instead of flimsy paper dolls, they had a real grown-up doll? It is important for a little girl’s self-esteem to play with a doll that has breasts."
