Tights Are Not Pants

I'm not sure if any of you have been around college undergraduates recently, but those of us who have (The Atlantic's offices are right by the GWU campus) have noticed a somewhat distressing trend toward young women wearing tights as pants. Under the circumstances, I thought I might take the opportunity to plug the work of the good people at TightsAreNotPants.com who are trying to point out that tights are, in fact, not pants.

This comes to me via Nylon magazine which it seems also has a print feature on this in their May issue.
