Huffington Post has uncovered a December 1995 issue of Philadelphia Magzine, in which vehemently anti-abortion Sen.

Stop the presses! What is Scott Schulman, better known as The Sartorialist, trying to pull by writing about Uggs?

Besides just giving up  meat on Fridays (or pretending to when your parents ask), Lent is a great time to break bad habits.

It’s probably part of the male model’s job description to look bored and annoyed, but some of the male models at London Fashion Week really seem to be perfecting their craft.

Meet Georgia Representative Yasmin Neal. She’s fed up with the government trying to legislate women’s reproductive rights, so she just introduced a bill into the general assembly that would ban Georgia men from having vasectomies.
