The world of women's magazines is not always known for its exceptionally good faith advice, and Cosmopolitan has been responsible for some real corkers. Pro tip: if you really want to sexually satisfy your boyfriend, you don't need to slog him in the nuts with a burlap sack full of ice cubes or whatever the hell it is Cosmo told you to do.
But this one definitely takes the cake. Cosmo US posted an article with the following headline on their website.
The basic heft of the article was about a woman namedSimone Harbinson and her struggle with a rare form of cancer, viewed through the prism of weight loss and dieting for some reason. Featuring weird passages like this one:
After her surgeries, though, Simone describes her eating as even more erratic. Her binges became more frequent. Shed walk every few days for fresh air, but that was the extent of her workouts. So it came as no surprise when excess weight piled on. I just wasnt in the right mindset to do anything, she says. I really struggled most days to comprehend what I had been through.
Like putting on weight after major cancer surgery is somehow a terrible thing. The second-to-last paragraph now deleted reads as follows:
Simones weight loss success is proof that ANYONE can lose weight without breaking a sweat simply by eating more mindfullyno gym required.
The responses online have sure been interesting.
Hmm. Swing and a miss.
