Mary Poppins If she was a fencer, what weapon would she fence?
Remember, "practically perfect in every way."

I can't see anyone who wears frilly clothing and flies away on an umbrella fencing anything other than foil. She's too ... dainty for anything else.

I'd say epee, because she's practically perfect, but she's faaaaaaaaar too dainty and frilly for it, plus she can fly. So foil it is. "Contrariwise," continued Tweedledee, "if it was so, it might be: and if it were so, it would be: but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic."

She's not down to earth enough to be fencing sabre.... 
Seems like a foilist to me.... With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter

Well she'd obviously fence foil because it's got the best of both saber and epee without the drawbacks.
P.S - If putting Dabre in the poll as an option was to remind the world of me doing it accidently a little while ago - I applaud you.
If it wasn't then welcome to the accidentaly typing the wrong letter in a weapon name club. I'm so cool; put me in a fridge and it gets colder!
I'm Australian and that makes me MANLY!

Myself being an epeeist nontheless, I believe I have to go with Foil. She just fits the frilly image 
(and what's Dabre?  )

Mary Poppins weapon I think she would go one better than a foil and probably use a hat pin.

Funny, I see her more like the basket hilted claymore type... "Since when does being a patriot in America mean shutting your mouth?"

I voted for foil. She just seems the sort. Finicky, sitckler for rules and all that on the surface, but a sneaky rule bender when the adults aren't looking. Yep foil fencer. In Deum Veritas, In Deum Caritas

No, what weapon she fences, not what car she drives!

Foil, with its emphasis on rules, right of way, and quick, sneaky attacks. "Spit-spot! Touche!" "Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never . . . never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense." Churchill, 1941
