Cosmopolitan magazine was founded in 1988 and was marketed as a family magazine featuring hints and tips on relationships, beauty and careers. They are synonymous with quality articles and have been the staple of every woman's inventory for years. Fast forward to this year and the Cosmopolitan magazine has become an influential superpower for young women with over two million subscribers in the United States and popularity as far reaching as the Philippines.
With such a great reach and influence on modern women, one of the major concerns is of the content being espoused in the magazine that was once a primary source of information for empowering women and creating a happy home.
Kitchen Aid Mixers
A quick glance at the cover of today's Cosmopolitan magazines show the words "Sex" in bold, along with semi-naked men and guides on "Spicing up" relationships. First impressions would lead us to believe that this magazine is of adult entertainment nature instead of the wholesome image it was once recognized. Critics are quick to point out that Cosmopolitan magazine insist that their magazine is about helping women to improve their relationships, however hypocritically, the magazines are often centrefold laden with pictures of naked men. How could these images possibly help any relationship between men and women? Do they not encourage promiscuity?
Aside from these images, the modern version of Cosmopolitan magazine continues to offer quality information on health, beauty and fashion. Their magazine features in-depth articles written by enthusiastic writers with a deep passion for disseminating the latest news and gossip. With the target audience of Cosmo being of the 24 - 34 age group, it could be argued that suggestive images of men are no different and, in some cases, less revealing than their male equivalents such as FHM and Playboy.
In conclusion, Cosmopolitan is a long standing magazine that provides beauty, health and relationship advice for women. There is a case that Cosmopolitan magazine could be accused of gross hypocrisy; however, this decision can vary and is dependent on the perception of each reader. Nonetheless the magazine continues to provide quality articles making it a worldwide bestseller winning numerous editorial awards.

Black Friday KitchenAid K45SS Classic 250-Watt 4-1/2-Quart Stand Mixer, White Overview
Perfect for kitchens of all sizes, the classic series stand mixer delivers the power and durability to mix large batches. 8 cup flour power. Powerful 250-watt motor. Versatile 10 speed control. Durable, direct drive transmission. Multipurpose attachment hub wBlack Friday KitchenAid K45SS Classic 250-Watt 4-1/2-Quart Stand Mixer, White Specifications
KitchenAid's stand mixer is a substantial piece of equipment: 250 watts of mixing power make child's play of creaming butter, kneading dough, and whipping cream. The kid in you will appreciate how quick and easy it is to mix up a batch of cookie dough; the 4-1/2-quart bowl can hold up to 8 cups of flour, which translates into as many as 192 sweet treats.This model comes with three attachments: a flat beater for making batter, meat loaf, and all textures in-between; a wire whip for egg whites, mayonnaise, and more air-infused creations; and a hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs. All three are solid in construction and easily secured to the beater shaft with a simple twist; untwisting them is a bit trickier because the attachment stems are short and can be hard to grasp, especially if they get the least bit greasy. The bowl itself locks tight to the base.
Standing 14 inches high, jutting out a foot, and weighing more than a grown woman's bowling ball, this stand mixer isn't the sort of appliance you'll wipe down and put away. Better to find a square foot of free counter space for easy access; besides, this machine is as pretty as it is rugged--you'll want to show it off.
To complete the package, KitchenAid includes a spiral-bound guide with instructions, mixing tips, and 67 recipes, from crispy waffles to a caramel walnut banana torte. --Betsy Danheim
