Women, you can't live with them, you can't shoot them. When mine gets on my nerves, I retreat to the Bat Cave, knowing it will pass.
@kquinn909 saidYes, of course. But you will be able to hear the tree fall.
If I'm out in the middle of nowhere and there are no women and I speak am I still wrong?
Women's magazines have names such as "Marie Claire", "Annabelle", "Young Miss."
Men's magazines do not have names like "Frank", "Harald", or "Old Curmudgeon."
Men's magazines have names such as "Road & Track", "Guns and Ammo", "Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society."
Imagine women's magazines with names like "Detergent Weekly", Top- & Front-Loader", "Annals of the International Hairpin Manufacturer's Association."

@moonbus saidNever dated those stereotypical women that read those
Typical women's magazine:
Pages 1 - 10: accept yourself just as you are.
Pages 11 - 20: how to lose 10 kgs.
Pages 21 - 30: Black Forest chocolate cake recipes.
Pages 31 - 39: how to tell your lover when it's time to "hit the road, Jack."
Page 40: horoscope, your soul mate's star sign.
dreadful rags but I acknowledge their existence and the women
that read them. I dare say they will not exist in 50 years time.
Perhaps you could tell us what a typical men's magazine looks like?

@wolfgang59 saidMen's magazines tend to be either thing or activity focused, rather than, as in women's magazines, person or relationship oriented. Men's magazines are about such things as vehicles and sports, cars/motorcycles/bicycles/airplanes/guns, golf/surfing/rock climbing/hunting/fishing, or the various accessories needed for these activities, and men's 'health' (= muscle building).

Women's magazines look like these:
https://www.discountmags.com/magazines/womens
With two exceptions -- a) Good Housekeeping and American Farmhouse (how's that for stereotypical: the woman's place is in the home), and b) food-related (how's that for stereotypical: the woman's place is in the kitchen at home ) -- there is nearly always a woman's smiling face on the cover, embodying the current ideal of feminine pulchritude. I love the one that emblazons 'heal your thyroid, lose 38 lbs by Christmas.'
Of course, there are exceptions, a few magazines would be gender neutral or of equal interest to men and women, but the broad stereotypes hold in the monthly publishing industry.
Viva la difference.
EDIT
A typical men's magazine: 'Hobby Workshop' (a parody):
Letters to the Editor: 'My wife tidied up the workshop while I was out fishing and sorted all the screws — by color !!" P.J. Tiddle, Waubash IN. Editor replies: put a lock on the door.
Comparison: WD-40 vs. Silicon spray. We drove to Denali AK where it was 40 below, the car door locks froze shut in the parking lot. Which spray opened them them?
Road test: We pound the shi*t out of the new Stanley ball peen hammer.
Comparison: Phillips vs. TOX.
Opinion: Do you need a hydraulic lift?
Safety goggles: Don't weld without them!
Fire extinguishers: We got a little carried away with the welding torch. Five fire extinguishers under $100, comparison test.
For sale bulletin board: five fire extinguishers (slightly used), $50 each.
@moonbus saidDid you mean TORX, here?
Comparison: Phillips vs. TOX.
Actually I almost chimed in with the same comment, that men's mags are mainly about things, while women's mags are more about people or relationships.
What we need, maybe, is more intermingling of subjects.

Sorry but the magazines in your dentist’s waiting room are about 2 years old?
