id=506&mode=&order=0&thold=0">REASONS TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL,
5/24/04]. Today she weighs in with a

2004Jun27.html">thousand-plus-word article detailing the lives of
high school bad boy jocks and the girls who love them, no matter how
badly they're treated. Readers are hereby invited to take a crack at
what the next completely obvious piece of cultural anthropology
Sessions Stepp intends to expose. I'm going to go out on a limb and
guess "Chess Club Nerds Who Graduate From High School With Their
Virginity Intact" or "Blondes With Huge Breasts Garner Inordinate
Levels of Attention from Male Bartenders." Can we just hand her the
Pulitzer right now?
