A well written, well put together, well focused magazine is a thing of beauty. It presents its subject matter in formats light on the distractions, unlike the Internet and television. A mens magazine can focus on body building, business, cars, provocatively photographed women, sports. A Toronto magazine can focus on the concerns and attractions of the city. In fact, Toronto, Canada's magazine Mecca, has a large enough population, some 5.5 million, to support a number of weekly and monthly publications all on its own.
Do you like magazines? If so, when visiting Toronto take the time to explore the Toronto section of the magazine isle at any good news stand or book store. Here you will find a mens magazine or three that are top notch. Though naked women are not the specialty of any of them, snappy writing, good fashion coverage and odd-ball articles certainly are.
Are you a commuter? Compare the experience of reading a magazine on your morning commute on the Toronto GO train with reading an ezine on your smart phone. The magazine presents itself to you with more content on as much as twenty times the content as a smart phone can present. The graphic content is of measurably better quality. And the quality of the information content is also higher. Writers for the web rarely have the resources and time to research and write anything of high quality. This is why so much of the content of ezines consist of opinion, rather than facts.
In Canada, it is common for a major newspaper to include a monthly glossy magazine. Subjects of these types of full color magazine inserts include a monthly business magazine, a quarterly glossy dedicated to automobiles, an annual brides magazine and a travel magazine. The Toronto mens magazine section has fewer entries.
The largest circulation genre in the industry are celebrity gossip magazines. Of the big glossies, women's fashion mags including bridal magazines, are number two. As for the mens magazine genre, the range of sub-genres is long. The mainstream general interest mens magazine covers fashion from a very conservative perspective and combines this with bright, sardonic writing and soft focus photo spreads of attractive starlets.
The path of the mens magazine was forever altered in 1960. That is the year that a British court ruled, in an obscenity case concerning Lady Chatterly's Lover, a 1928 novel by D. H. Lawrence, that people have a right to read and view obscene material. Two hundred thousand copies of the book were sold over the next week and three million were sold over the next two years. Today, mens magazines that prominently feature nude women are considered generally acceptable.
A sports magazine is a pleasure for sports fanatics. Where else can you get the background stories that are sports fans hunger for. Knowing the backstory of a player creates an emotional involvement in a game even when your favorite team is not playing.
Canada's largest single market is the Greater Toronto Area. It has a thriving local Sports Magazine industry that is one mens magazine short of demand. Toronto is also the nations capital for all other English language magazines, not just local ones. - 42569
