But I honestly don't. When I finally asked where they got such pictures, they threw Maxim into my hands. But, as I perused the other pages that actually had text, I realized how funny the content was. In October's issue there was a comparison between Harry Potter vs. Colonel Potter, with a score of 5-2. The wizard kid won.
Maxim dares to be very dumb.
It's a men's magazine for men who don't want to do too much heavy thinking. Or too much light thinking. Or any thinking at all. Growing up, I was exposed to 'Teen, YM and Cosmo - magazines that sexualize women as much as Maxim does and market themselves as monthly Bibles as to how women should look or what they should become to be desired. The unfortunate truth is that sex sells.
