i hardly think girls who want to lose weight should be one-stop-shopping for a magazine that airbrushes the living fuck out of its already skinny, glamorous-than-thou models. GameStop, shame on you.

Well at least you can buy games and pretend you were buying 'em to give the magazines to her.
That Cosmo and their temptress schemes! 101 ways to wrap him around your finger without him knowing!

You and your manager must not have a high volume store.
We see a lot of women every day. This program has been a big hit for us already. Offering them these magazine subscriptions is about the same as offering all your male customers Maxim subscriptions when buying action games. Would it be stupid then?

Not really all that different, though. Seems like both men's and women's magazine both feature scantily clad women prominently.

BUT, a better question is... are we far enough past the women's right movement that men can now be liberated and have a magazine about sex (think GQ, but with SEX all over the cover, talking about milking a woman's glands) in grocery store aisles, or do we still have to feel like pervs buying them in some dirty 'NEWS" store, or online?

But if by "prove me wrong" you actually mean to simply show you a Cosmo cover that does not feature "sex" - here ya go: [upload.wikimedia.org]

I can't be the only person who still thinks it's funny when trolls like this have no friends on their profile, right? Right?!?!?! *cries in a corner*
