In many Mexican households, a seemingly stable phase begins to wobble when the husband enters what is known as “middle age.” It’s common for men around 45 to start questioning aspects of their lives, especially their marriage.

Minnesota state Rep. Kaohly Vang Her admitted Monday she is in the US ‘illegally’ in a shocking confession that rocked the nation as riots unfolded in Los Angeles over ICE deportations.

I have no idea when or where I first encountered the phrase “decentering men.” All I know is that by the time it weaved its way into my vocabulary a few years ago, I seemed to understand it instinctively. This concept, wherever it came from, put words to something I’d been experiencing in my own life both consciously and subconsciously as my relationship to men—what I wanted from them, how I saw them, and how I saw myself in terms of them—began to shift in the latter half of my 20s.

Ariana Biermann claims mom Kim Zolciak would buy her pricey Christmas presents — using Biermann’s own money. “Every Chanel bag I have, I have never bought one on my own,” Biermann, whose adoptive father is Kroy Biermann, told her “Next Gen NYC” co-star Gia Giudice on the latter’s “Casual Chaos” podcast Monday. “My mom has got them for me for Christmas with, apparently, my money.
