feminism and women's magazines  

Definition(s)

  • From their beginning more than three centuries ago, women's magazines have provided a public arena for debates and discourses about women's role in society. Their popularity is due not only to their offering a space for public discussion of women's concerns, but also for providing their readership with suggestions for and guidelines on everyday life issues, such as improving private relationships, beautifying the body, managing the household, spending leisure time, and buying and using commodities in the proper way.
