How come Maxim and Cosmo have similar cover photos?!
Question:
How come Maxim and Cosmo have similar cover photos?
Scantily-clad women. Maxim is a men's magazine, so it's obvious why they have such covers, but Cosmo is a woman's magazine (generally focused on heterosexual women judging by their "please your man" type articles). Why put such sexy women on the cover of Cosmo?
Answers:
what a good observation...i never noticed that.
I suppose cosmo employs this strategy because their readers want to be like the women on the cover of maxim. Maxim pleases men, and most cosmo readers want to please their men as well...
