Let's have more smartly dressed TV anchors and fewer inherent sex appeals.

Smart professionals dress smart for success in their field. Wondering how clothing choices sexualize and stigmatize some people? Look at the differences between various TV news readers and TV anchors ... across various channels. Who wears jewelry? extensions to hair and eyelashes? eyeliner? exaggerated lip coloration? Who reveals their body shape and emphasizes gender role by bare or tight fitting upper arms and chest? who suggests or shows breast cleavage? Who makes sure to wear different clothing during a work month/year? Who wears high heels and open toed shoes? Now ask yourself if sexualizing females in professional news broadcasting contributes to work environments that judge them first by looks, and second by their experience and the product of their workload? Any wonder some lame-brained co-workers get the wrong signal?

I will start. How about lining up taco trucks end-to-end? A cut of the profits would pay for the wall. Or, think big. How about an elevated pedestrian & bike path? or, a bullet train?

A wall between U.S. & Mexico is an important matter that needs wide-flung input to create the best design. On-the-cheap or magnificent, Americans, Mexicans & the world need to send in suggestions, sketches or renderings.
