Cosmo-can or Cosmo-can't

Cosmopolitan magazine is like the bible for me usually but lately I have felt really unsatisfied with the things they're putting into it. When I first started reading Cosmo I loved the sexy tips and all the fashions they had and even how I could find them at regular people prices. But now it seems that the mag is filled with ads and the same recurring ideas. 99 Sex moves, 75 sex tips from guys, what he's thinking during sex and his #1 sex wish are just some of the subtitles in bold on the front cover from the last couple of months, and they all sound the same and have the same tips half the time. I can't tell you how many times I have had repeats of tips on multiple lists like these over the past year.

Cosmo to me was the ultimate power magazine for women, with interviews from mega stars and real women celebs that people want to read about. Now even the interviews sound the same. Name and nickname, what they do in relationships, favorite body part or something so trivial and stupid that half the time I don't even read the interviews anymore. Cosmo, if you're going to go get interviews with big female names and celebrities at least have balls enough to ask real questions and get an exclusive or something, because this fluff stuff is boring and becoming quite ordinary.

The ads in Cosmo are starting to take over a little bit too much. You don't even get to see what's going to be in the magazine most of the time without having to flip through about 6 pages of ads first. I know you guys pay for a lot with the money from advertising but don't you think if you have more ads then actual information and fun reads, that you're probably over doing it? And yes, we all know that we will probably buy a lot of the things we see in the magazine but sometimes it's really annoying when you have to flip through 7 pages of ads just to read the rest of the article you were reading or the fashions you were looking at.

So Cosmo maybe it's time for a make over, or even a new creative director, because you're no longer producing new materials. Staying top dog should be hard work, not a repeat of all the stuff you have been publishing for the last 5 years. And as an avid reader, huge fan and have been wanting to write for you since I hit puberty, I really hope that you take a look and renovate Cosmo. Cosmo is supposed to be the best and I feel that you're only skimming by on your reputation and not the actual content of the magazine.

So for now it's Cosmo-can't and the readers are ready for something new and fun that will blow us and the competition out of the water...we'll be waiting.
