Hello there. I am an Applied Language Studies Honours student at the University of Natal Pietermaritzburg, and I am going my research project on the representation of women in women's magazines. I was wondering if you could e-mail me with some information about where I could find some information on such articles. Your help would be most appreciated.

Thank you for your time, Kerraleigh

Thanks for your note to FEMINIST.COM. To find more information on women's representation in women's magazine, I suggest that you look at:

1.) Gloria Steinem's article--"Sex, Lies and Advertising"--which can be found in her book, Moving Beyond Words.

2.) About-Face--an organization that combats negative and distorted images of women.

I hope those help -- good luck.
