If you don't mind getting a distorted view of womens' preferences, go ahead & read. However, I'll bet they are just as distorted as some of the mens magazines like MAXIM. According to many of these magazines, women have tons of money to blow on clothes, shoes, & accessories that cost more than some forms of transportation, skin & hair care products, have really well-paying jobs (where are these & what can I do to sign up?), & have gorgeous men falling all over them.
I sometimes buy them, but to be honest, I look at how the portraits were shot, the lighting, make up, & stuff like that being that I am into photography. I hate the fact that they have to make all the women look rail thin & drop dead gorgeous, & super sexy, when that's also not the way the majority of ladies appear in RL. Who would go out wearing clothes that are see through without undergarments, ultra short mini skirts/dresses/shorts, or so over the top expensive, you'd have to take out a loan to afford the items that they feature? Just crazy stuff. It's mostly fantasy that they are pushing in those magazines. Nothing wrong with fantasy if you know that;s what their marketing plan is, & don't expect more.
