What are some of the magazines you read?

Question

I know this may not be the right area for this but I spend most of my time on G&WS so wanted the answers from you guys.

Lady: Some mags do but only the fashion and beauty mags---I like magazines like The New Yorker, Reader's Digest and Poets & Writers.

Answer 1

I'm subscribed to Mothering, Juxtapoz,The New Yorker, National Geographic and the Utne Reader.

I also like Scientific American, Psychology Today and Discover.

Edit: I also receive Ploughshares 3 times a year. It is where many notable authors started out; have a look sometime.

Answer 2

I like the british mags.....Country Living, Period Living, Eve, Company, Red. I also like Saveur, Utne, The New Yorker, Mother Earth News, Sagewoman, Bon Appetite, Bust and B*t*H.

Answer 3

I subscribe to Time, Newsweek, The New Yorker, Smithsonian, Scientific American, The Nation, Utne Reader, National Geographic, Philosophy Now, Philosophia Mathematica, Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism, New Vico Studies, Wittgenstein-Studien, Russell: the Journal of Bertrand Russell Studies, Philosophical Psychology, Journal of Mathematical Logic, History and Philosophy of Logic, Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, Analysis, Erkenntnis, Harvard Review of Philosophy, Philosophical Investigations, Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society, and Mind.

But I buy quite a few others on occasion, art, writing, science, technology, comic book collecting, et al, and read some others at the library or in waiting rooms.

EDIT

Judging by the thumbs down, let's see: someone dislikes Martha Stewart, someone dislikes Oprah, someone dislikes sex workers, and someone dislikes Wittgenstein.

Answer 4

Sadly, not much anymore - I prefer to get my information online (news included)...

I'd say that I pick up a copy of the following on occasion:

Men's Health (every two or three months)
PC Gamer (1 to 2 times a year - to keep up on trends)
"Nudie Mags" (Hustler, etc. - whenever the "urge" happens to be there - about 2 - 3 times a year now that I'm NOT single)

Answer 5

Cosmopolitan, Glamour, Self, Redbook, Ebony, Seventeen....National Geographic

Answer 6

Discover, Scientific American Mind, Astronomy, Psychology Today, Time, and occasionally Reader's Digest

Answer 7

Newsweek
National Wildlife
Petroleum Collectibles
Cowboys & Indians
Writer's Digest
Birds and Blooms
Wheelin' Sportsmen
Smithsonian

I also like to browse magazines at the bookstore once a month and often come home with something new to me.

Answer 8

National Geographic and Discover are the two subscriptions we have in our household.

I occasionally browse Skeptic Magazine too, but that's really about it. I like novels better than mags.

Edit: Oh, I used to really like Reader's Digest... Maybe our magazine subscription count will go up to three soon...

Answer 9

I read Bust, and Spread. Spread is a magazine about the sex industry, and is mainly geared towards people who work in the sex industry or are sex worker activists.

Violinist: You might like Bust. The best way I've heard it summed up is that it's "about women doing cool stuff." It's a feminist publication, but it explores a lot of different ideas about feminism. They had a really interesting article about a burgeoning feminist movement in the mormon community recently. And they also have recipes, craft projects...oh yeah, and a short erotic story at the back called the "one handed read." :) It's a good balance of decent articles and fun stuff.

Answer 10

Whatever is on the table at the doc's when I go. Not much of a magazine reader, although I will buy a Quarterly if I'm going on a train trip.

Cheers :-)
