| demosthenes's Full Review: Men Magazine |
Men's Journal seems like a pretty satisfying read but it heaps on the fabulous pictures instead of having much scintillating text. The current issue, excuse me, "The Paradise Issue," has a decent feature on traveling to warm exotic weather spots ranging from the Florida Keys to the Caribbean to the Kingdom of Tonga but not too much else. The other features on "Can This Man Ski Everest?" and American Indian country are solid pieces but get a bit lost in the morass that is the rest of the magazine. The fitness section is mainly pictures of a man showing his pecs while lifting weights without much instruction or text. They seem to be borrowing from the women's mag formula of lots of pretty pictures, blurbs, and one or two substantive stories. Definitely a mag for the bathroom or subway but not anything to spend serious time reading.
