45. Birds of a feather.

Not surprised.

It's interesting to note that when you do see a woman on Fox, almost invariably they are statuesque, attractive and very "made up". I'm not at all faulting any person for looking the way they want and being attractive, but that is what that network seems to gravitate towards. I suspect this might have been dictated that women could not be seen in anything but the tightest dress they can manage.

I don't watch much, but never have I seen a woman on their airwaves in any sort of "casual" clothes like jeans, actual glasses and un-coiffed hair. While the men don't dress like schlubs either, there seems to be a different standard.
