• Hike ’Em Up, Boys: Short Shorts And The Erotic Power Of The Male Leg

British historian Professor Karen Harvey argues rather convincingly in her 2015 article “Men Of Parts” that the arc of men’s fashion, from medieval robes to 1950s suits, is one where legs, and their gradual reveal, became a stand-in (pun-intended) for maleness. Having an outfit with separate tops and bottoms (as opposed to a dress) became synonymous with masculinity. As we left The Renaissance, the rejection of poofy silhouettes in favour of increasingly sober and form-fitting attire was not just a workaday evolution, but one that fetishised the leg itself:

“Projection had long been ‘the fundamental principle of masculinity’,” wrote Harvey. “This phallocentrism was manifest in the closely dressed male leg that appears to have connoted not just beauty and strength but male reproductive power.”

The leg as a phallus. Makes a lot of sense when you think about the shape. And unlike the phallus, you can actually improve it. Even better, there are two of them.

• The Case Against Pet Ownership

We may see ourselves as the best of animal lovers, but we very well could be inflicting suffering on our pets every day.

Pet-keeping “is like a sacred cow in a way,” Pierce told me. “Everybody assumes that pets are well off, and in fact, pampered … All they have to do is lay around in a bed and get fed treats every now and then and catch a Frisbee if they feel like it — like, who wouldn’t want that life?

“Underneath that is the reality that doing nothing but laying on a bed and having treats fed to you is profoundly frustrating and boring and is not a meaningful life for an animal.”
