Re: Jane Cosmetics at 2014 Championship

I ignored the makeup booth. It wasn't targeted at me and I don't feel qualified to assess it, beyond a general feeling of unease at the existence of the idea that makeup is for girls.

I could not ignore Ms. Tilton. Her speech didn't seem particularly focused to me, but I might have been distracted by the cognitive dissonance her high heels evoked in me. I am not accustomed to seeing someone with such good business success make a conscious decision to walk that way.



(Full disclosure of my personal opinions: I think high heels make people look silly, and I generally do not appreciate makeup.)
