Cheerleader Promoted

Tamara Darvish has just been voted chairman of the Washington Area New Automobile Dealers Association.

Looks like she's going to need those skills she learned as a cheerleader--actually dressing up in "a white leather mini-skirt, red high heels and a glitzy red- and white-striped blouse" to promote her father's dealership on T.V.--as she's never actually sold a car herself. Not as a salesman, that is.

Just too superior morally, and in every way, one guesses, to need to know the business in order to represent it like a man would.

From "In Male-Dominated Industry, A Woman Grabs the Wheel" by Anita Huslin, appearing in The Washington Post Monday, December 3, 2007.
