WHY IS THIS STILL HAPPENING?

Apparently someone at JC Penny thought this was a "Fun Tee" for 7-16 year old girls!



They apparently got a lot of flak for it and  have removed it from their catalog. 

However this one is still there:



Do they not have women who work for Penny's?  Or men who have daughters?  Or someone who might, in 2011, for heaven's sake , see that this is a sexist and negative message to send?  Or is everyone out there in retail land out to make sure yet another generation of women grow up thinking their most important attribute is their looks and that intelligence and success is for men.

And all these tee shirts which have been pulled from the website?  Where do you suppose they are going to end up?  I suspect that they will be sold in a Third World Country where the women don't have anyone looking out for their best interests.
