For Michelle Obama, Girlie Clothes That Lean In

nytimes.com - I admit: I was startled last week when I saw the first photos of Michelle Obama debarking in Japan at the beginning of her five-day Asian tour to promote the “Let Girls Learn” education campaign.

Not because I don’t think it’s a terrific initiative; I do. I have two daughters, and think the more that can be done to make girls feel empowered by their academic experiences, the better.

And not because I don’t think the first lady should be emphasizing the partnership with Japan and Cambodia. The visits are laudable.
