Lads mags to be moved to top shelf

Apparently because lads mags feature more nudity on the cover they're now going to be classed with porn mags.

Personally, I disagree with it. It could be said that lads mags have some porn in them but really they're about lad lifestyle, which has nothing to do with pornography.

Btw, while I don't think much of the stupidity that the lad culture promotes, I don't disapprove of pornography. In fact, I'm beginning to find all these politically correct attitudes of 'everybody's got to be covered up all the time, because otherwise it's sexist' extremely depressing.

But that's enough from me. What are your views on the matter?

    Didn't notice the other thread about this topic. I suggest we amalgamate anything written down here with the other thread called 'Lads Mags - Part 2' though it's up to the moderators of course

    on the contrary, i think a lads lifestyle almost always has something related to porn in them

    Ok, it has what could be defined as porn in it but that doesn't mean it's the same as porn

    Are you kidding me, you can't even find proper porn in newsagent in this country. So what so men magazine got a naked women on it. So does tonnes of advertisement on TV and in women magazine too!

    Nudity != Porn.

    Go to France and go look in newsagent and there you will find proper porn...
