what magazines do you read regularly? which would you like
to subscribe to? this isn't a pointless question, it's
actually pretty useful for sharing with people what you
think are great magazines (for politics, musicians, music
listeners, cooking, sewing ;P movies, art, computers,
whatever). personally i don't read any magazines (i used to,
but i got lazy) but here are the ones i give my seal of
approval to (i'd love to subscribe to all of them)

CMJ Music Monthly (keeps me in the know)
Cosmopolitan
Elle
Jane
Maxim (so fratboy, i love it)
The Nation (favorite political magazine)
National Geographic (especially the pictures!)
Revolver
Spin (hit or miss)
Time (sometimes wack)
Urb (favorite)
XLR8R

as for elle, jane and cosmo - i think a lot of you could do
with a little better understanding of women! pick up an
issue sometime, you'll do yourself a lot of good :)

I love being your favourite titsworth, I've got to say but
cosmo+ has got nothing to do with understanding women. they
have got a lot to do with understanding the miserable
fashion industry and all that comes with it. oh.. and trends
and hype
and more trends and more hype.

even penthouse would be better for understanding women.

I sometimes read

nme
mixmag/muzik etc.
wired
knowledge

nme is mostly garbage outside of the cool music news that
gives me the info i need to run my page. as for cosmo not
being the insight into a woman's soul and mind - you're
right! it's a garbage magazine. but it gives you some
insight into women's sexuality. elle and jane are much more
representative as women as a whole.
