Most magazines cater to the superficial
demands of a woman; vanity. Somehow they never get to the real issue;
personality. I have been following Hello Giggles! for quite a while but I
only got to read their articles now and what I’ve read have been really good.
Sometimes their articles are short but poignant, they tackle the simplest
things about being a girl and it makes the reader feel a companionship with the
writers. The writers are mostly actors, musicians and performers. They write
really well and it’s like having an online magazine for a best friend. BFF’s
talk about anything and everything and it’s what this website is all about. In
their ‘About Us’ section, they mentioned the words lady friendly and standard
boys club, the latter which they find unappealing, most magazines nowadays seem
to be all about finding and keeping the right guy and hooking up or sex which
for me is very shallow and it endorses women as boy crazy. Imagine how boys
would think when reading magazines that only talk about those issues, is that
what really goes on in girls brains? Fashion and beauty magazines are fine but
they tend to make the readers insecure and insecurity is a girl’s worst vice
and magazines like that tend to foster the idea that we have to aspire to the
model’s looks to be truly beautiful. It’s all so phony. Hello Giggles is a
fresh relief, reading them makes you feel good about yourself.
