by Jamie Frevele | 5:44 pm, May 9th, 2012

For some great reason, Jon Hamm has taken it upon himself to offer advice to some teenage girls who asked questions on the internet. Because he is a grown man, and he might know a thing or two about life. Like how guys don’t care about a girl’s farts, because everyone farts. But when it comes to sex, maybe stick to just making out, because that’s “super fun.” Who are we to argue with Jon Hamm? We’re not going to argue with Jon Hamm.

This, naturally, upset many people besides the girls who were named, and police are investigating to see who wrote the original message. Sad possibility: this could have been written by boys or girls.

Photo Collection of Girls In Their Bedrooms

by Jamie Frevele | 1:14 pm, April 11th, 2011

Remember your bedroom as a teenager? Plastered with posters, evidence of your budding social life, the graffiti of youth … Photographer Rania Matar has conducted a project for which she photographs teenagers in the United States and the Middle East, at home in their bedrooms. And it just goes to show, there’s no wrong way to be a girl. (And being one hasn’t changed too much, either — there’s surely a picture of my Jim Carrey/movie geek wallpaper floating around somewhere.)
