As a man it’s easy to discount a magazine that runs feature stories with titles like “Please your man…Again” and “The day my husband became my wife”, but on occasion there’s a great zinger of a story delivered between the ads for perfume and moisturizers. The quality of writing that comes out of the larger women’s magazines is astounding if you’re not expecting it. After educating myself over the last six months I’m willing to eat every bad thing I ever said about Redbook.
There is one downside to being a man who reads magazines marketed towards women. My hands smell like a French Cathouse from all the scratch and sniff perfume ads.
Lately I’ve been trying to get into podcasts, and I can’t figure out why so many of them are just so awful. A microphone + fleeting internet celebrity does not equal interesting. Are there any good ones out there?

I feel the same way about GQ. It’s one of my favorite lazy reads.
