    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    The other day, standing in line at a Chipotle with my 15 year old daughter, I saw that the late-teen boys ahead of us were passing a smartphone around. And then I saw why: One of the guys was showing everyone in the group a mostly nude photo of a current or former girlfriend. There was much...
