I'm not complaining at all, and I understand that scantily clad women sell magazines (or at least they did before the internet), but it's just odd.

It used to be a magazine geared towards men. Men liked boobs. They showed boobs. They sold lots of magazines.
Apparently these days they're geared towards a different market. One that doesn't seem to buy their magazines anyway.
