[Associated Press] A weekend news anchor and TV reporter in Portland, Oregon, is doubling down on her preference for high-waisted pants after a male viewer told her to “dress like a normal woman” in a message sent to her Facebook work account.
Maggie Vespa, who works at Portland’s NBC affiliate KGW-TV, posted photos of herself wearing a different pair of high-waisted pants on five separate news casts over the weekend because she wanted to draw attention to the pressure that women who work in the public eye face daily.
A final stance for high waisted pants (sorry for rhyming).But seriously… As I said on TV tonight, there is no one way for a "normal woman" to dress/look/be.Ten years ago, I'd have needed someone to remind me of that.Now, I'm hoping this reminds others ❤️👖
