I was in CVS today, buying some toothpaste, and noticed the magazine “Cosmo’s Best Confessions”, many copies of which were sitting in the rack next to the cash register.

Having, on occasion, read bits and pieces of Cosmo, I’m assuming that next week “Penthouse Letters” is going to be occupying that particular bit of shelf space. Because they’re not really very different.

Geesh. One more example of men being discriminated against.

(I feel the need to point out that I have no actual desire to buy Penthouse Letters. I mean, if I wanted porn, that’s what the internet is for. It’s more a general comment on society, relative freedom of genders in certain contexts, and so on. Or maybe it’s just a comment on how smart the marketing people at Cosmo really are.)
