Dear Ann Landers, Southern California Mom writes of teenage girls who phone her 17-year-old son late into the night and hang around wearing spandex tops and short shorts with absolutely no underwear. The Rest or Ah Lakiiers That letter brought to mind the observations of Martin Luther while teaching at the University of Wittenberg in 1544: We have a great horde of young men here from all countries. The girls are getting very bold. They run after the fellows into their rooms and chambers and wherever they can, offering them free love. I hear that many parents have ordered their sons home. It's obvious, Ann, that some things don't change much across half a millennium.
Dear T.A.,
Thanks for the research. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
