Jump for chump chicks

by kmennie Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 30 '00
Pros: Yet more entertainment for the Britney Spears set
Cons: Shamelessly ill-informed, poorly written, trying to be something it's not, and, well, too much make-up
Sadly -- very much so -- this is yet another up there in the pantheon of Teen, YM, the current Sassy, et al. Heaven knows why people get their knickers all knotted up over the supposed bad influence of Barbie dolls when girls hitting the...

Pros: About real people, hobbies, and
Cons: some ads are.... uh!
Unlike most magazines for teen girls, Jump writes about real teens, just like us, and the magazine shows us that we can be like them too. We can be successful, smart, by just trying our hardest. Some people think the slogan "For girls who dare to real"...

Jump! It should be hop!!!

by Mew4000 , Mar 21 '01
Pros: Normal people, not overly processed girls
Cons: Poorly written, trying to hard to fit in with the other magazines
This magazine, is fair. I just do not realize why girls have to be so over-done, and everyone has to be an inch thick or jump won't be your big break. Sorry to bring people to realization, but jump is really the same as some other teen-based magazines....

Pros: Self Esteem Booster
Cons: Not very much
Yes I admit that the slogan "Dare to Be Real" is a little bit corny but it has truth to it. If you look inside the pages of a Teen People or a Seventeen, all you see is pictures of emaciated 16 year old models, articles on how to loose...

Are These Girls Really Real?

by Kbelle34 , Aug 07 '00
Pros: Great content, interesting articles.
Cons: Elitist attitude, unrealistic subjects.
Several years ago, I was a teenage girl addicted to girly fashion mags. All of a sudden, girls my age were being fed a deluge of new magazines, telling us how to dress, do our make-up, and then go out and catch our dream guy.

JUMP *The Real Deal*

by XoAnGeLoX , Jul 13 '00
Pros: well-written articles, feel good about yourself
Cons: quizzes here and there
One of the reasons I have grown to love JUMP is because it is a magazine for girls of every shape and size. They realize that not every girl has the perfect body, and they try to convince teenage girls that size doesn't matter. JUMP has very...
