An odd pairing

I was rather horrified to look at the top of the front page of my Post-Gazette last Tuesday to see references to two articles inside the paper: (1) "Saving Face: Plastic Surgery Feels the Pinch" with a picture of a Barbie doll and (2) "Math and Science Careers: How Women Fit Into the Equation."

Is this irony or failure to see the connection?
