What is your favorite magazine geared towards women to read?

I'm starting to get into the billions of wedding magazines just because they have a lot of cool tips I normally wouldn't think about, like not inviting people I don't like. That saves a lot of money!

Real Simple for two reasons:

  1. The design is flawless and every issue provides me with great inspiration.
  2. The advice given is good stuff for a messy person like myself who lacks the common house sense of a lady.

I can't even lie, I sneak a little peak at Cosmo every once in awhile. It's sometimes funny to hear how wrong women are about men, but sometimes right too.

As a woman right now there isn't a magazine that appeals to me to read each month. I find the exact same information online. Real Simple (never heard of it before) appeals to me. Subscribed.

I've pared my women's magazine reading down to Marie Claire and Self.

Personally, I read Vogue and Harper's, US and UK editions, as often as I can afford them. (I'm in Australia and imported mags cost $12.50 each and I can't justify $50/month on magazines.)

They have a good mix of intelligent, thoughtful articles about things that effect women, as well as the pretty pictures of course!

As for magazines, I read "Glamour", "Cosmopolitan" (that's a sometimes read), "Self", "Lucky", "Teen Vogue" (that's another sometimes read), and I must say that "Real Simple" is a nice magazine.

Like Mike, when the time came, I looked at wedding magazines too for ideas and to also share in the experience with my lady. I did learn a lot of useful tips as I'm sure Mike will too. Be sure to check out the cake pages... mmm... cake!

I've also poked in on Cosmo to check out the surveys to see what women say they want in a man and a husband or just in a guy for dating.

Sometimes those surveys can be so stereotypical. Not all guys are jerks or forget to put the toilet seat down.

Biography, US, Maxim

No womens' magazine read over here - don't really and haven't for a while read any as in general they aren't much good as far as I am concerned.

I read cosmo every now and then... but it seems to be the same articles over and over... also, I don't currently HAVE a man to "drive wild in bed" so most of their articles arent too helpful, haha.

I like Real Simple's website, but I don't actually use any of the stuff on it...

I used to get vogue for the ad's (I'd draw them), but ever since I watched "Killing Us Softly" I can't look at ads the same way

Cosmo is really saying "how to be a wh*re in 5 easy steps".

Oh and magazines usually cost cheaper at Walmart, so they say.

I read Martha Stewart.

What's the deal with overweight[0] girls who buy those woman's fitness magazines but never move their butt to try anything in them? I've noticed a number of my female friends who fall into this category who always have those mags around their ap't, but never actually do anything. Then they complain about how they really want to lose weight and just stop at that.

*braces for impact*

[0] You know, just a little overweight. Maybe... chubby? Not obese. Just a bit above the recommended weight for height.

I like Tango Magazine available online at http://www.tangomag.com. The articles are really meant for reading..great perspective and voice..much different from all the other crap available at conventional sites. They have a trial for a digital edition that is available from the home page. Good design sensibilties and love the content. I plan to cancel my other subscriptions and subscribe.

I don't read, women's magazines for the most part, I subscribe to none. Real Simple is a magazine I have purchased before and is probably the best of the lot. If I had to choose I'd choose Jane, and Vanity Fair.

I don't read many women's magazines. I used to read Cosmo and Self. Now I read More and Marie Claire. Oh, and any magazine on tea, teahouses, etc., are a favorite, also.

Glamour and Cosmo is good.

But man, a lot of magazines have more ads than anything!
A bit annoying....

I used to read Cosmo. Then I discovered Jane, and haven't looked back. Cosmo is great if you're into trying new sex positions or lure a man every month. I already have a man and he doesn't mind missionary, so I wasn't really getting my $4's worth. I feel like Jane's more geared toward a young working lady like myself. ;)

Real Simple is great as well. Since I subscribed it has helped me so much with making the most of my time and energy. I love their website too.

Most of the magazines I subscribe to are photography & art mags.

I used to read Cosmo.. but got bored of it. They've got practically the same content every month.

Lately, I've been liking Lucky. If you live in a larger metropolitan area like I do, they've always got tips on neat shopping events in your area.

I tend to see or read Woman's magazines at offices where I come early for an appointment or they are late. The only magazine I really do subscribe to and read cover to cover is about politics.
