K just quickly - what's Nuts mag like?

Nobody's forcing them to be there, but it is forcing a view of women that is insulting and misrepresentative on men too stupid to know better. You may think it's light-hearted fun - but like the Sun, there are people out there for whom this is the only literature they read, and they take it seriously.

Would I be a sexist for buying it? To be honest the naked girls bit doesn't bother me, I much prefer the stupid trivia and cars bits, as well as the telly guide, which provide fodder for hours of inane and stupid conversation with my housemates. I don't understand why you condemn me as unintelligent just because I read some junk.

I'm glad you have so much distain for Nuts, just don't expect me to read Heat, Glamour, Cosmo or any of that bull****.

I condemned you for reading it because I assumed (apols on my part) that you were buying it to read the inane comments these idiotic women make about sex toys and I quote "sleeping in one big bed together in the nude" (my flatmate buys Nuts). I thought you were quite an intelligent bloke - and it shocked me that you read that rubbish. If it is trivia you've after then fine.

I have a subscription to Maxim for the same reason as Carl says he reads Nuts - It's hilarious and a bit of good fun to read. Maybe it objectifies women - boo hoo. Everything's consentual, and the only person who would take it seriously would be an utter muppet to begin with. I think it's time some of you checked how many pairs of shoes your high-horse is wearing - i think the high altitude and low oxygen is getting to your head.

Edit: Oh, and no one buys it for the women. If you want to see pictures of naked women, there's far far better resources.

Its like any other lads mag but is funded by th joint powers of the Sun Newspaper and the National Socialist Party of Britain. Posing for them would be helping nazis. Don't help the nazis

You've gotta think about context. Newspapers are there to deliver the news. Sure, The Sun et al do this poorly, but then you wouldn't ask a builder for political commentary. You wouldn't ask a politician to review a DVD player because most probably wouldn't be reading "What? DVD Player Monthly".

When people only read nuts, that's a fault of their own selves, not of Nuts magazine. The fact of the matter is, you can - and most do - read nuts and get a bit of a laugh, but otherwise have a totally normal social view when it comes to women, society etc. If the people who only read Nuts didn't read Nuts, and instead read nothing, would they be better off? I highly doubt it.

Again, the people who ONLY read Nuts are idiots. That's been well stated and i'm not going to defend them, but that's their fault, not Nuts's.

I always thought segat1 was a man, just by the name and the avatar, god knows why!

As for Guts, it makes sense in French, whereas Nuts doesn't means anything (literally translated Couilles, which is kinda vulgar), whereas Guts, although an English word, is understood by the French.
