I don't read Cosmo but this advice just adds to the stereotype that women think they can change men. Just ignore the fact that he told you up front he doesn't want kids. I'm sure you can talk him into it later. Whatever.

Well, that explains a lot. No wonder I was so screwed up when it came to relationships. I devoured this magazine cover-to-cover when I was in my 20s & 30s. Crap -- why didn't I know you back then?

Semi-random answers and comments: yes apparently some women are that desperate for validation, no I don't subscribe to Cosmo I just surf the internet a lot, no I don't want kids (my fiance asked that one, by the way), and yes it is totally unrealistic crap, that unfortunately people read and some likely believe...

Oh, I cannot deal with Cosmo. I will read virtually anything, but Cosmo makes me itch and break out in hives.

As a women I am offended by the unrealistic crap that comes out of Cosmo and other like-minded mags. I refuse to buy them now and only ever check them out at the docs office, and each time I am disgusted after 5 mins and toss it back ont he table. I would hope that most women would read this and realise how ridiculous the supposed advice was, but unfortunately I know it is practically a bible for some.

And as you say "Unacceptable" is a joke. Women have battled for reproductive choice, why the hell can't a man have the same right. Surely he should be applauded for being upfront and not just saying what she wants to hear to get her into bed.

if people [namely, women} take advice from a magazine, then they deserve what they get.
that's so ridiculous.
but my real concern here is:
how in gay hell did you happen to read this???
(i refrained on purpose to end my phrase with crap/shit/etc...)
no, you're not the target audience.
no, women shopuldn't pay attention to these things. but we all make our choices in life.
but to find validation in a magazine is to me a nonsense...
are people this desperate?
i'm afraid you're gonna say "yes" to that one.

I have a deep-seeded hatred for Cosmo magazine. I strongly believe they feed into women's insecurities about their own bodies and self-worth with their articles.
