Ok, Ladies, What women's magazines do you read [openly or in hiding, not
 wanting anyone to see]? What about 'chick'-lit and 'chick-flicks?

Care to share any titles and/or authors?

Ok, a light but somewhat fun series of books [most of them are at the 
library in Ypsi] is about 'The Hot Flash Club' [which is the title of
the  first of the series].  There are several women from various circles
and  jobs that end up meeting at a party and end up forming their own
clique  that did stuff together.  

I dont regularly read any women's magazines but if I am sitting in a
waiting room or something, I'll pick one up. Sometimes if I am feeling
in the mood for getting pissed off, I'll buy one and then sit around
reading it while figuratively shaking my fist into the air at the values
they seem to promote. Ladies Home Journal is one of my favorites for
that since it always has about half of the magazine devoted to weight
loss and the other half devoted to rich delicious recipes. For a long
time, I couldnt figure it out and thought that the LHJ was just about
sending mixed messages but then one of my friends (in a bitch session)
suggested that the message was that the women should lose weight but
cook the rich delicious calorie laden recipes for their husbands. 

I love the magazine "Real Simple" which while I know is not "for 
women" seems pretty "woman driven".  

I found myself reading articles on their website the other day after a
google search landed me there. I enjoyed it. 

I subscribe to it, and in my efforts to "stay organized" - I read it,
cut out out any relevant recipes (that's generally what I always save)
and recycle the magazine.  I even have file folders to keep the recipes
organized.

I also love how they do "best of" stuff, everything from lip gloss to
marinara sauce.
