I had a live-in girlfriend who went to a Mary Kay event, and was disgusted
by their philosophy. When I told her that I knew what Mary Kay was all
about, she was angry with me for not warning her, but if I would have,
she would have been angry with me for being critical of something she
wanted to check out, and would have accused me of being controlling.
It was no-win for me either way. Compared to Mary Kay, Tupperware
was pretty benign.
