In my journey through the Columns Idea file, I found some posts you and I did about the women who buy Cosmo in grocery store lines. Do you remember writing this???
Y'know... when I'm standing in line at our small town grocery store, I sometimes look at the Cosmo magazines and think, "I wonder who is buying these?"
Then I turn around and do a little scan of the various women in the store... Nope, definitely not too many Cosmo Girls around the store... Nobody wearing a ton of make
up, or jewelry, sporting high fashion clothes, or super high cheekbones, or breast implants... Nope... nobody like that in sight... Just a bunch of us in jeans and t-shirts or
plaid Croc shorts, pushing carts with babies, or sacks of potatoes...
OK... so then that begs the question... If we aren't buying Cosmo for the fashion or hair-do makeover stuff, then why are we buying them??..
Must be for all of the intriguing articles like...
HOW TO DRIVE YOUR MAN UTTERLY MAD IN BED...
or
LOVEMAKING SECRETS OF THE GEISHA GIRLS
or It comes back to me now.
FIVE ALL NEW HOT SPOTS THAT WILL DRIVE YOUR MAN TOTALLY CRAZY
or
DON'T LET THE Y2K BUG RUIN YOUR SEX LIFE
Yep, I figure that that's what all of the local women in town are really buying these Cosmo magazines for... We want to drive our men MAD or maybe even TOTALLY
CRAZY
...after all... isn't that what we all want... a totally crazy madman?
I have tons of little excerpts in this file of things people wrote here! |
