MAKEOVER CAMP??

WOULD YOU SEND YOUR DAUGHTER TO . . . MAKEOVER CAMP???

Ladies . . . if you have even a single feminist bone in your body . . . prepare to be outraged. I just learned there's a two-week summer camp in Canada for girls . . . called Makeover Camp . . . which has just ONE GOAL. Are you ready for this? -- To help little girls boost their self-confidence and become "proper" ladies . . . by improving so-called "skills" such as:
--Posture
--Voice
--Proper table settings and manners
--Conversation skills
--Wardrobe choices
--Hostess and party-planning skills
--Music appreciation
--Makeup application

According to one of the camp's founders, "We see a lot of young ladies who can benefit from a makeover program. They need to develop their presence . . . Look, this is not a boot camp to reinforce the notion that girls should stay home. It's not sexist." (--Oh, well if you say so . . .) (Macleans / Jezebel)
