Women's Health seems to have discovered the clitoris for the first time...

...and they are very excited! :eek:

I've been reading Women's Health magazine for about a year. I'm not in love with it, but I was given a subscription for Christmas. Lately I've noticed that they have really been focusing on sex, sex, sex. Has anyone else noticed this editorial shift? I don't mind an article on sex once in a while, but I'm not really looking for Cosmo in my fitness mags.

Yes ITA! I let my subscription lapse because there is way more fashion and sex than I'm interested in IN a fitness magazine. Now, I just read the fitness related articles on-line.
 
OMG tell me about it. one issue can picture drawings of different "positions". even made DH blush LOL. what they don't tell you is communication communication communication!! that is what makes better sex not tricks, positions, or money. notice i say better or good sex meaning something in a relationship not mindless LOL

I want a fitness magazine not smutt!! I had a subscription to a men's health magazine (can't remember which one) but it was just vulgar! I was very dissapointed! That's not what I care to fill me reading time with.
 
That may be true, but I'm pretty sure that you'd have to be doing push ups at the same time (a new position!- take that, Women's Health!)

LOL! That's already actually a position. I'm gonna leave it at that. :p :D

I just started getting this magazine and it has less fitness than I thought it would. I may get Oxygen instead. This month had "One Hundred Sex Tips" or something like that. "play hide and seek" was one of them. Yeah cause after the dishes are done, the animals fed, the kids in bed and the laundry folded what most women want is to go crouch behind the vacuum for 10 minutes waiting for their DH to find them. Though you could get some static squatting in during that time I suppose. :D

My co-workers are wondering why I'm laughing my ass off right now!
 
I'd be curious to find out why the person that one-starred this thread did so. Maybe that person wouldn't mind explaining why she felt it was necessary to do so?

In my experience many women are put off by the real names of their body parts. Maybe if you changed the title to "Women's Health seems to have discovered the hoo-ha for the first time" you'd get full stars?

:D
 
- -- I just assumed it was the moderator. ???

Here's my theory on the heightened attention Women's Health has on sex... my dh and I have noticed over the years that people who talk about sex - (in a suggestive way) usually aren't having any, and people who refuse to talk about sex aren't either.
 
This is hillarious. I got the first Women's Health issue and it was ok but there was so darned much to read and not that much on actual fitness that I was interested in anyway. I have not picked one up since. DH used to get Men's Health and it was always full of sex tips and half naked girls. I'm guessing that Women's Health is following that trend - but probably not including the half naked men?? I am sticking to Oxygen, M&F Hers and Clean Eating.

You girls are funny though. :p
 
ITA agree that this mag has gotten WAY too much into sex, sex, sex and "flat belly in 5 minutes" type of articles. If I want advice on that topic or new positions or new whatever I wouldn't be looking at a mag called "Women's Health." Yes, I know sex is normal, healthy, etc. but I'm looking for fitness topics. It's becoming more like Cosmo. I'll let my subscription expire.
