Terrifying women's magazines

Has anyone seen any women's magazine headlines in their local newsagent/supermarket recently that can beat these beauties?

How horrific - being fondled by David Hasselhoff! Sick

Most lads mags are devoted to the adoration of women

sexy naked ones maybe, but all the same

whereas womens mags are devoted to the hatred of men

about what useless uncaring wankers we are

where's the fairness in that?

Bitches!

I have a tendency towards the naive, so this might be a dumb question. Is that real?

Yes it is

my fave was 'born without a fanny'

I like the 'We're only 68p' bit.

Enticing.

I like the way they describe the content as "Real life and celebs" - at last confirming my long-held suspicion that celebrities don't actually exist in real life.

May as well have 'Shock photos ,eaten by as size 24 shark while being fondled by the Hoff' on the cover..the readership probably wouldn't bat an eyelid

Yup, it's real. I bought it purely in order to scan it in for posterity. I was that impressed.

I haven't read any of the articles yet. Not sure I want to.

Oh dear! Gone are the days when the worst thing was a 'People's Friend' 'baddie' who lay in bed on Sunday instead of going to church!

My scanner is not up and running yet, otherwise I would scan part of a wonderful Australian magazine I recently discovered called Bacon Busters. It's all about hunting wild pigs and has a section called 'Babes & Boars' in which women take their tops off and pose alongside freshly killed pigs. Here's an image from one of their calendars.

Women's magazines are awful. I only really buy them if I'm going on a long flight or train ride, but then get really embarressed if someone sits next to me and reads them over my shoulder. I have to resist the urge to turn round to them and say 'I don't normally read these...'

:D :D :D
Haven't read any since my mother died. She bought millions.

Unusual.

I have the same issue with Stieg Larsson books.

Took me a while to notice the meerkat thing above the title.
