I read the October issue of this magazine, and it wasn't any worse than a normal fashion magazine. It features ads for women's and children's clothes, easy-to-do hairstyles, tips on how to save money on everyday items (like carrots people, not just clothing), and recipes.

Right now it only partially…

@womanforwomen.

If you look closely at the picture, it is actually a flat/straightening iron. Most of them (including the one I own) can also be used to curl hair. So it is actually a bonus for the Jladies that don't have naturally straight hair.

In any case, I would love…

The decorative motif of the maternity ward and delivery rooms is not for the babies, as much as it is for the mothers--the women actually giving birth. I would not necessarily be made comfortable or relaxed by staring at "rockets, horses, and trains" even if I was giving birth to…

It is not required to graduate Morning Musume at the age of 20. They do so for a multitude of reasons. Some girls have left to concentrate on their studies (mostly university), some have left to pursue solo careers within the Hello!Project group (Maki Goto anyone?). The current leader, Ai…

As someone who participates in this fashion, I can actually support this article (in general). Some of the descriptions are not exactly accurate, but as this was not written by someone involved in lolita fashion, it is acceptable.

Instead of dressing "sexy" (Japanese gyaru fashion), girls flocked to lolita fashion.…

Given the option of a patdown or scanner, I would definitely choose the latter. After going through my third airport patdown (first two were random selection) I had to wait five minutes for a female TSA agent to appear. Then the patdown took another few minutes. All of this was…
