Too Sexy for Harvard

First, Harvard's president announced women are too dumb for science. Now, one librarian claims, Harvard also believes women are too sexy for library science. The university is being sued by Harvard librarian, Desiree Goodwin who says she was passed over for promotions because she wasn't dowdy enough on the job. Goodwin says her supervisor told her that she wouldn't get promotions because she was perceived as "a pretty girl who wore sexy outfits, low-cut blouses and tight pants." Who knew librarians had a dress code?
