Is anyone else bothered by the fact that stick-thin Nicole Richie is the cover model for the current issue of Lucky magazine? This poor woman looks like a skeleton with a hairdo. I’m not trying to make light of those who have eating disorders, but I question the magazine’s willingness to promote eating disorders by putting someone so unhealthy looking on the cover.
Women’s magazines tend to drive me nuts (not nuts enough not to buy them) because of the physiques they feature–among other things.
Fitness magazine is one of the worst for featuring skeletal “exercise models” who look as though they’ve never touched a dumbbell in their lives.
If you appreciate seeing women with some muscle tone, Oxygen magazine, on the other hand, features gals who train with weights and look like it. I’m not talking about steroid-bulked hulkettes but good-looking women with a level of muscular development that’s attainable without ’roids or HGH (just lots and lots of hours in the gym).
