And why has Sarah Palin made glasses sexy? It must be, surely, because she is such an idiot. Women worry that spectacles will make them look learned, blue-stocking, sexless or intimidatingly smart. In a trice, Palin whipped that stigma away. This is the woman who believes that God made dinosaurs 4,000 years ago, a theory now known as Palintology.
What reassurance for women everywhere. You too can correct your astigmatism while still coming across as a halfwit! Men will have nothing to fear! Hillary Clinton in glasses, now that's intimidating. Sarah Palin just looks like a librarian in a porn film.
