Just look at the titles on the magazines from the snapshots — ALL of them concerned with ‘losing weight’, ’shedding a size’, etc. This is an example of our patriarchal-controlled societies’ influence on the control of women. I find it sad, and depressing that women actually buy magazines like this that covertly tell them they are worthless unless they are almost invisibly thin and star-like attractive according to some impossible-to-attain standard. Please, please don’t buy this magazine and contribute to the perpetuation of this industry!

I have ordered and paid for this magazine yet still have not seen any subscriptions. I am very disappointed as I also order Glamour the same day and have already received two different months. Not sure where Self is going wrong but they need to model their turnaround time for new orders similar to Glamour.

I ordered this and was told I would receive the Feb issue. I have not yet and it is the middle of the month. I received another magazine ordered the same day at the beginning of Feb

The real life story it has is a little gruesome, (with pics of woman who lost her breast to dieting, bloody and sewed up nipples…. eek!)
I like something more inspiring. There’s a few, (very few) fitness stuff and the fashion pics–can’t really wear that in public, looks better on the runway.

When i subscribed to this magazine I was not wanting a monthly dose of politics. I already get enough of that. Articles such as “I Gave my Embryos to Science” and “Abortion is Legal” should be saved for a different type of magazine. Instead of renewing my subscription, I am going to opt for a different health and fitness magazine next year.
