- I was mistaken; it's been a while since I last saw one. However, in Ms.,
- this is a pretty recent phenomenom; they did have ads until just a few
- years ago. Plus, the ads weren't pulled because the editors were afraid
- of the negative effects they were having on the readers. Besides, this
- is just one of many women's magazines, and the others still have the
- ads.
-
- I still hold my point to be valid -- the pressure to look good that women
- feel comes from other women, not men.
