What does everyone think about this?
More importantly, what do the guys think about this?

Go in France and in every newsagent look at the top shelves and see what is a proprer lads explicit magazine...
This is just stupid...
Every single week on the cover it either says "omg look how fat/skinny these girls are".
Whenever I glance through that magazine (as my flat mates always buy it and for some lame reason, I read them when she leaves them around) I end up feeling bad about myself.
Children see obscene images everyday. What real use is this gonna do?
Come to think of it, add the Daily HateMail, the Express and the Mirror to the top shelf.

I wholeheartedly agree.
One glance at the cover of these magazines; the people and stories they feature and I can literally feel my brain cells committing suicide. That's the only real problem I have with Nuts, Zoo etc along with the multitudes of women's magazines that are utterly mind-numbing -- they're all absolutely inexcusably crap.
I would agree with the point bongbudda and others have raised, too. I don't think these lad mags do actually objectify women anymore than the likes of Cosmo and More magazine objectify both women and men [I'd go as far as to say magazines targeted at women are more worrying generally in terms of the messages they send out and ideals they promote] ..albeit in a slightly different way.
Way, way more...
I happend to have read a few and I am not surprise women have so many issues...
What do wear if you have a fat ass, don't wear this cos you will look fat...
You don't eat properly...
You have to wear make-up...
How to hide that flaw, and that one and that one...
Fucking magazines...
Or the good old "Should I leave him Test"...
i know porn is available on the net for free etc.. but there is something satisfying about sitting there with a porn magazine.
as for heat/loaded etc... deffo shouldnt be top shelf material, its not like theres anything that explicit on show, you can seen tits on the beach or in the newspaper, why not in a trashy magazine.
Are they bollocks.
It is not porn, it is erotic...
Porn contain close up pictures of penetration and others...
Erotic show naked woman, but not from to close and there is no penetration or other things of the same style...
Neither should newspapers. Proper porn mages with full on frontal and rear nudity and sex scenes on show are what should be on the top shelf and thats all.
And the women on lads mags covers never really come across as good looking anyway.
female anerexia (spelling?) is much much higher than male! and i do believe its down the pushng of products through adverts and magazines thaa you need all these things to look 'beautiful' and if you done ur ugly, society's pressure is mainly cultivated by forms of the media and advertising!
and personally a little aside, i read one with a survey of how males should and shouldn't look, gingers, long hair and beards were a big no no! well if true im screwed, or not as the case may be!
