Re-assessing men's magazines : Comments

By Matthew Holloway, published 23/12/2011

Could girly magazines be moving average male attitudes to females closer to that of the rapist?

You're absolutely right, vanna. We should have a big bonfire for all the vapid, vacuous women's magazines and stick to publications with sensible articles like:

"5 Health Benefits of Masturbation"

"Is Wine Really Healthier Than Beer?"

"Could a 2-Day Diet Work for You?"

"The Sex Toy that Cures Erectile Dysfunction"

"Four New Shoes You’ll Need This Season"

and my personal favourite,
"The Best Plate Color for Your Diet"

All of which come 'Men's Health' magazine. We'd better start censoring men's magazines right away. They are prepared to publish so much inane, unreliable, useless and gossipy drivel, that the mind of the modern man finds totally interesting and absorbing, and can’t get enough of.

When the situation is analysed, the pinnacle of it all, is for one gender to be so often reading articles such as "The Most Obnoxious Thing You Do at the Gym", or "Hair Loss is Your Decision".

And they read such articles in vast quantities.

Brain-dead with minimal ability to think for themselves, and there is the question of what to do with them.

I think the question of what to do with men has been around for centuries.

The more the modern man reads his “glossy” type magazines that concentrate on “image”, the more brain-dead and easily lead the modern man becomes.

Walk into any house with a man in it, and the magazine rack will probably be filled with magazines containing such articles, and I believe such magazines are creating far more relationship problems than they ever solve.

Men remain their own worst enemy.

It is not women.

Poirot,
What is it with your veiled threats and nasty comments towards me? Are you some type of feminist heavy?

Lighten up. Maybe you could give yourself a special treat these holidays, and try Oprah’s much recommended “Vanilla Pudding Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting”.

Or maybe try her “Gooey Cinnamon Sticky Buns” and “Strawberry Whoopie Pies”.

Yummy, and no wonder our Prime Minister wanted to be on Oprah’s show. She doesn’t seem to want to walk down the aisle though.

Did you catch her feminist Christmas message to the Australian people. I didn’t, and I don’t think anyone did.

Unfortunately I can’t read your recommended book at present, as I have become rather caught up reading articles from “Allure” magazine. It’s all about the modern woman, and its totally riveting stuff.

For example:-

“10 Hairstyles That Make You Look 10 Years Younger”
“10 Beauty Mistakes That Add 10 Years”
“The Sexiest 5-Minute Makeup Looks”
“9 Easy Ways to Sex Up Your Makeup Routine for 2012”
“9 Ways to Look Sexy—Instantly”

And for the slightly challenged modern woman, ”How to Make a New Year's Resolution”

http://www.allure.com/

UOG,

Wash out your eyes immediately you filthy male beast. Obviously Bust magazine is not going to be a suitable magazine for you.

Try this one.

You can do away with men’s magazines. Hardly anyone reads them anyway.

But I would recommend this magazine for you: -

“The Queen of Burlesque On the Art Of Dressing Up”
“See behind the scenes of the covershoot with the pregnant supermodel”
“Get Kate Moss’s Wedding Hair”
“2012 horoscope with Jessica Adams”
http://www.vogue.com.au/

A magazine totally suitable for the mind of the modern woman, or anyone who thinks she is great (and by that I don’t mean she is normally big or heavy or fat type of thing, but great......Although the modern woman is normally big, heavy and fat, but no one is allowed to say that ).

Dear vanna,

You don't have time to look at a book that shows
how far women and children have come in this country
but you do have time to browse through magazines
whose subject matter you claim to be unworthy of serious
consideration.

As Poirot pointed out - slippery-slope indeed.
Oops.

vanna, time to admit defeat. Your generalisations don't cover everyone and the same sort of generalisations could apply equally to men and sports and fishing magazines (or watching Top Gear).

I pointed out early on that a couple of the articles who's titles you'd mentioned from Jezebel were actually positive about men. Have you had the decency to go back and have a read of what you'd apparently condemned without checking or is it all about point scoring?

I detest it when men are judged on mass based on feminist interpretations, I can't see how it's any better when you judge women in a similar way.
