Upon learning that Monica Lewinsky, 33, graduated from the prestigious London School of Economics with master of science degree in social psychology, Washington Post staff writer Libby Copeland was jolted down to the DNA in her bone marrow: “She did not!!”
The notion that “the same bubbly gal who once described the act of flashing her thong at the president as a ‘small, subtle, flirtatious gesture’ has now written a lofty-sounding thesis … ‘In Search of the Impartial Juror: An Exploration of the Third Person Effect and Pre-Trial Publicity’” was, Copeland wrote, “akin to finding a rip in the time-space continuum, or discovering that Kim Jong Il is a natural blond.”
No argument from The Stiletto so far. But calling this a moment that makes you “question your fundamental assumptions about the world” she advances her thesis that the world is full of “dumb-but-smart” people by resorting to a fundamental assumption – read, gender-bashing stereotype - that is as unfair as it is untrue: “stupidity has historically been as much of an asset for women as double D's.”
The Stiletto understands that women who have teeny breasts are comforted by the fanciful notion that curvy women have teeny brains – but she takes umbrage at “boob bashing” nonetheless. On behalf of bosomy-and-brainy women everywhere, The Stiletto has launched a crusade against “boobism” – the last remaining acceptable form of anti-woman bias.
Even though the most brazen boobists are other women, this flat-out stereotype must still be repudiated once and for all.

Well, she probably did well on her oral exam...
Well, it depends what you consider fat. I'm a size 14 on top (yeah, the boobs) and wear size 8 slacks. Fat?
But being the base person that I am, I still clicked your ID for possible pictures!
I did a lot of stupid things in my 20's and I'm grateful they weren't advertised to the entire world.
Thanks for doing the honors. I was going to if no one else had.
Limpid?
I forgot to mention: I have boobs AND a concealed carry permit (in AZ).
Maybe.
Unless the lipids are a Freudian slip refering to the filling in the Twinkies...
Smart men and women can get along fine: fat, ugly or otherwise.
Dumb chicks and guys that are hot, also can get breaks on looks alone.
But "fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son!" =)
I didn't know AZ required women to have a permit to carry concealed boobs...?!?
I don't know if genes are involved. While the women on both sides of my family have respectable racks, I'm the only D/DD (depends if it's a regular or push-up bra). You know how I got 'em? Force of will. I am not joking. Some people with supernatural brains can bend spoons or move objects. I chose to use part of my brain power on this. Sure, I coulda maybe devoted my entire brain to figuring out time travel or something, but I don't regret my choice.
Well, good for you. I hope you keep them concealed.
No, you only need a permit if your boobs aren't concealed - or your gun is concealed. Damn regulations!
Just because my body's a playground doesn't mean everyone gets to play in it. ; )
That's the one government job I'd do...determining who got permits and who didn't...
Don't gotta prove nothin' to no one. My gun says so.
