Look, I’m a dude so I don’t read Cosmopolitan much, or ever, really, I just occasionally see it at the grocery story and wonder, “why do women need to know 100 sex tricks” every single month?! Anyway. They’re pretty atrocious, but they outdid themselves on one article and social media is destroying them over it.
OK, so… interesting. I could see why women would get hooked on the headline and the picture of a good looking woman, so what’s the secret?

If you guessed cancer, then you have a black hole where your soul should be, and you can probably sign up to be a writer at Cosmo immediately.
How despicable is that?!?
This despicable:

Yeah, they had to delete it, but not before they were destroyed on social media over the terribly offensive post.

@Cosmopolitan is LITERALLY marketing a woman’s battle w cancer as a DIET ALTERNATIVE. Fire whoever did this – then burn their idea notebook. pic.twitter.com/XBu5hqn1Za

Wow… @Cosmopolitan wrote a story about cancer as a weight loss aid. That is low, even for this trashy mag! https://t.co/3TC8vtNjtr

Thanks Cosmo, you make me ashamed to participate in this empty, soulless culture.
