Cosmo Cover to Cover



So i just read the new Cosmo with Katy Perry on the cover! I loved the issue and the new fall fashion trends but i do think the magazine is becoming so much more sexualized. The images have always been risqué, but now the content is more 'sexy' than ever. On  page 107 of the magazine there is a story entitled " Cosmo's Naughty Sex Checklist" with 63 naughty experiences to check off. On the following page it tell you the percent of the 6,000 responders that filled out the survey.


 It breaks them into 3 categories: "I've done it", " I haven't, but i'm curious", and "I wouldn't".
Some of the question are as follows:
Had an orgasm during sex- 71%, 12%, 1%
Had Skype sex- 20%, 40%, 40%
Sent a naked picture of yourself in a text- 62%, 15%, 23%
Many more questions, some involving the "back door" are asked. As humorous and amusing as this is, it is funny how any one can buy this magazine including 13 year old girls!
The cover of the magazine has article that reads" FIRST, TAKE OFF HIS PANTS" - Next, treat him to the sexy strokes hes been craving all along...but wont ask for!.
Now don't get me wrong! Cosmo is a guilty pleasure of mine but can we even classify this magazine under pop culture any more or would it more likely fall under the category of over 18 content, if you know what i mean!

What do you guys think of "pop culture" magazine's these days?!
