...Feeling unattractive? All you need is that new shade of lipstick from L'Oreal. Boyfriend not treating you right? Try this new diet, he'll be eating out of your hand. I guess this attitude doesn't make me a good candidate to review the trendy new men's mag, Maxim, but I have great news to report: When your man is going to the gym, he's not indulging his Neanderthal muscle-building urges (okay, that might be part of it); he wants you to ooh over his pecs...
...double dose of Ms. McBeal.

...French, Depeche Mode is roughly equivalent to "fast fashion." Now forget that. Their sound has nothing whatsoever to do with "fast fashion." In a whimsically unimaginative fit, the band named themselves after a French fashion mag. So you can put the French-English dictionary away and concentrate on the music...
