As an editor and Young Professional I know the importance of keeping up with competing publications. The staff of Your Monthly Periodical can’t cover every topic on our own which is why I will be presenting you with highlights from other ladies’ magazines. I want my readers to be well rounded. Here for your enlightenment: Glamour February 2012:

- What does your man’s taste in music say about him? If he’s a Justin Bieber fan: Glamour says “He is immature but might surprise you” Sheeny says: No man likes Justin Bieber and if he does there is a whole lot of wrong going on. Dump him. Fun Fact: The Biebs suffers from bacne.

;

-”Weird Love Advice That Works” (pg. 99) The highlight for me was this little gem:

“Using a water gun instead of arguing over minor frustrations – like when someone puts the empty milk carton back in the fridge – keeps them from turning into major fights…’It’s fun!’ Mandel explains. ‘And it breaks up the negative energy, because you can’t laugh and be angry at the same time.’”

;

Oh really, Debbie Mandel, holder of the ambiguous title ‘Specialist’? I am quite certain I have laughed and been filled with rage at the same time. Most notably when someone hits me or yells at me. Love/Hate. Anger/Laughter. It’s a thing. I have also been on the receiving end of a spray bottle and let me tell you it produces a lot more irritation than amusement. Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t particularly enjoy having my shirt and face doused with chilly water while I’m minding my own business reading a fine periodical such as Glamour.

-”Seven Sexy Nights” Want. Her. Hair.

-”Revenge Is…Beautiful” And her hair.

- I owe Jake an apology. I said he was a fake dude who’s been dispensing advice for 20 plus years. Jake is a fake dude who has been dispensing advice since 1956. I feel kind of impressed now. But to all the ‘men’ who have used the pseudonym: Your advice sucks. Except for 1960 Jake who said ‘you are 20 times more intriguing if you cook”
