What sort of parent would send their daughter to this event?

Girlation is aimed at girls 11-18 and U4U which is running the event at the Natural History Museum on London describes it thus.

An interactive and fun day for your favourite young lady. She will experience:

Inspiring performances – dance groups, music, guest speakers.
Educational experiences – a high heel boot camp exploring positive development.
Star treatment – theatre paparazzi & a hot pink carpet at the entrance.
Free pampering – massages, manicures, makeovers.

Girlation – Information for parents and guardian’s.

So an education experience is learning how to wear high heels! I leave the last word to Lucy Lawrence of PinkStinks.

When I visit the U4U website and read about all the ‘wonderfulness’ that GIRLATION will offer, these are the words which run through my mind. I find myself thinking of gems such as absurdity; inanity and gibberish. Balderdash; tommyrot and drivel. What about blether; blather and blah-blah, not forgetting flapdoodle; flimflam and poppycock. But the claims being made about this event are far more than simple twaddle. It is insidious and cynical; exploitative and dishonest. Shame on the Natural History Museum. Shame on U4U.
