Cosmopolitan magazine has over 3 million subscriber's world wide and this popular magazine has a lot influence over females in modern society. With this amount of influence, the question that needs to be asked is if the editors of Cosmo magazine are aware of their corporate social responsibility and if they place any importance to the responsibility of their content in regards to the effects on society.
Cosmopolitan was founded in 1886 and over 3 million people in the United States are subscribers. The popularity of this magazine is not limited to America but also worldwide. The UK is the second highest subscriber of Cosmo with almost one million subscribers and it is available in many other countries such as the Philippines, Croatia and Russia.
Since it's founding in 1886, Cosmopolitan has been associated with empowering women and offering beauty and health advice. Their target audience is young women between the ages of 18 - 34 who are single or in relationships. Nowadays the content of their magazine features tips on relationships, beauty and health but with a strong emphasis on sex and often featuring illustrations of naked men. As an example, some males that have featured in the Cosmo mag include footballer, David Beckham, and actor, Daniel Craig. With this in mind, doesn't a magazine which features relationship advice but also pictures of naked men seem counter productive? Does this not encourage cheating and promiscuity?
Many would argue that these types of images are for entertainment and are no more encouraging than watching TV and they are just the female equivalent of male magazines such as Playboy. The only difference is that Playboy does not target males in relationships or claim to offer relationship advice. Similarly, TV shows also do not these associations.
Cosmopolitan is the lifestylist for millions of fun, fearless females who want to be the best they can be in every area of their lives. Cosmopolitan inspires with information on relationships and romance, the best in fashion and beauty, the latest on women's health and well-being, as well as what is happening in pop culture and entertainmentand just about everything else fun, fearless females want to know.
In summary, if you are looking for second to none beauty, health and fashions tips and can handle the hypocrisy of relationship advice and images of naked men then Cosmo mag offers a great avenue of high quality content for all women worldwide.
