Good riddance.\u00a0 You\u2019re going down fast and I couldn\u2019t be happier.\u00a0 I\u2019m sick and tired of seeing these \u201cthings\u201d on the shelves of our newsagents.\u00a0 I can feel the anger rising up every time I see magazines like this for sale.\u00a0 I particularly feel it when I walk into a shop with my daughters.\u00a0 How dare they inflict this on my girls.\u00a0 How dare they send out a message that all women are objects of lust.\u00a0 And how dare they demean me or seek to corrupt me by blasting images into my brain that I don\u2019t want there.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll be brutally honest.\u00a0 I\u2019m praying that Bauer Media (owner of Zoo, a particularly pathetic title) and IPC Media go bust.\u00a0 Okay, it will cost people their jobs but I\u2019m a man at war.\u00a0 Enough is enough.\u00a0 Its all gone too far and as far as I\u2019m concerned, I\u2019m going to devote a significant amount of energy into trying to cause as much hassle for the publishers as possible.\u00a0 Let me tell you porn peddlers, theres power in \u201cthem grass roots\u201d and a lot of us blokes \u201cain\u2019t happy\u201d.<\/p>\n

By the way, you girls can join in too.\u00a0 Below this rant is a list of all the titles published by IPC media.\u00a0 Don\u2019t just moan about it, lets fight it.\u00a0 If we are serious about the sexualisation of society and truly sick of it all, then lets all stop buying the magazines listed.<\/p>\n

In addition theres a campaign taking place to make \u2018modesty wraps\u201d a legal requirement.\u00a0 That means we wont have to put up with the assault on our vision every time we walk into the newsagents.\u00a0 At least it will help until they go out of business.\u00a0 Mike Beecham’s the man behind the campaign and you can sign the petition here;http:\/\/epetitions.direct.gov.uk\/petitions\/25536<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh, and a quick message to the cooperative chain of stores.\u00a0 Show some courtesy and reply to the emails about the campaign.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t buy these titles;<\/p>\n
