Cosmo was the first women’s magazine I read
Posted on January 25th, 2008 by Jackie Danicki
We used to pass copies around in junior high (ages 11 - 13). It’s a ridiculous publication, and I think we sensed that even then. (Same went for our textbooks. But Cosmo was full of sex, unlike our textbooks, so we always read it. Some of us took more notes from Cosmo than we did from our school books.) This cover is so close to the reality of that magazine that it’s almost not a spoof:

“Sex tips we’ve been recycling since the 70s”. Ha! That is spot on. The only time I read those things nowadays is at the gym, because the braindead fluff and ridiculous stories are better at keeping my mind off the exercise than “fitness” magazines - because let’s face it, those are just fashion magazines with an added dose of guilt.
Brilliant.
