Sex and Gadget Mags
21st Century Mum asks can someone please enlighten as to why you never ever see half dressed (undressed) men on the cover of gadget magazines? I can’t enlighten anyone but the whole topic depresses me. Just when I think equality is winning and sexist pigs are dead, something like this reminds me that I am living in la la land. Obviously the editors of these magazines think that gadgets will interest far more men than women, so they put images that they think will appeal to men on the front cover. The thing is women DO like gadgets but what woman wants to buy a mag with a half nude woman on the front? So woman don’t buy the magazine and the editors continue to think that women aren’t into gadgets. It’s just a shame that some of the men reading the magazine don’t ask for images that are a bit more relevant to the subject of the magazine, and why aren’t they annoyed that the editors are assuming that part of their brain is in their trousers?
