There is no doubt that adult sexual concepts are increasingly seeping into the lives of children, with some arguing that online porn is now the lead sex educator is our schools.

Back in July of this year, Women's lifestyle magazine 'Glamour' was roundly condemned after publishing a set of guidelines for women to follow by in order to charm a bloke.
In the article, which went viral, the magazine catalogued '13 Little Things That Can Make a Man Fall Hard For You' and justifiably caused a social media tsunami as users slammed the writer. Tips from the list included bringing him a drink in the shower, making him a snack after sex and answering the door in your underwear -- in antediluvian advice that might not be out of place in an episode of Mad Men.
But I maintain that magazines like 'Glamour' -- despite the occasional stuff up, heterosexual assumption and all -- are not in fact Satan and that they can and in some cases, are a useful way of getting evidence-based advice to the masses covering health, psychology and general wellbeing.
A recent survey asked young people who they turn to for advice when they need help and unsurprisingly the generation born with a mouse in their hand, turned most to the internet, followed by parent/s and then somewhat surprisingly, magazines.
Not that I needed it but the importance of magazines in the lives of these young people -- vindicated my decision back in 2003 to accept the offer to take on writing for Girlfriend magazine's "Advice" columns.
Despite some reproachful looks and disparaging remarks from colleagues, I regarded this then -- and still do -- as an exceptional opportunity, which would afford me the opportunity to deliver evidence based and ethical advice directly to over eighty thousand young women each month as they struggle with the vicissitudes of teenage life.
The initial response of most people, upon learning that I have been dispensing advice to teenage girls for over a decade is, "Are the questions made up?" To which the answer is no -- the magazine receives thousands of genuine emails to its advice columns every week and even the occasional communication by snail mail.
The upside of writing for a teen girl's magazine is that I know more about Justin Bieber and 5 Seconds of Summer \than most grown men. But there are some downsides to the role. One is that the moral, ethical and legal dilemmas that our readers sometimes serve up can be tortuous and often require widespread consultation with a plethora of colleagues who thankfully are generous enough to offer their perspective.
After all, what do you say to a 14-year-old who comes home early and finds her mother in bed with a neighbour? Not to mention the 15-year-old who finds her father watching teen porn? Sometimes you just don't have enough specific details to offer detailed guidance -- so you reluctantly have to settle for offering generic advice -- usually around accessing help from a trusted adult, family doctor or teacher.
The other problem, which often plays on my mind -- is the delay between the time the writer seeks help and the time at which the answers are published. Logic dictates that sometimes the particular dilemma might have resolved itself one way or another by the time an issue hits the newsstands.
I take some comfort in the fact that increasingly young people contact magazines via social media and there is a editorial protocol of referring them to telephone crisis or online counselling services like Kids Helpline or eheadspace .
There is no doubt that adult sexual concepts are increasingly seeping into the lives of children, with some arguing that online porn is now the lead sex educator is our schools, well before they're cognitively or developmentally equipped to process this information.
As commentators like Melinda Tankard-Reist and Steve Biddulph correctly point out this is an imposition on a childhood to have to try and understand or comprehend this imagery and sexual messaging that they are so often bombarded with.
I am conscious as a psychologist of the hyper sexualised messaging which pervades young women's lives. More and more girls are wanting breast implants because they are dissatisfied with their natural bodies, the power of the marketers is so strong that some end up making girls feel bad about the body.
More and more of my clients despise their own bodies, and the results can be seen in the statistics with one in 100 girls anorexic, one in five bulimic and one in four want to have cosmetic surgery. Sometimes it seems self-hatred has become a rite of passage for many teenage girls.
In the past I worried that the magazines like Girlfriend and Dolly have contributed to this culture. But even the fiercest critics have to admit that these magazines have undergone some significant changes.
For example Girlfriend has instigated "reality checks" since 2006, which are media literacy tools that graphically indicate when an image has (or hasn't) been retouched, when readers have been used in a shoot, and they also let the reader know just how much time and effort goes into getting the 'perfect' shot (ie: it took four hours, 123 shots and a professional hair and makeup team to get this one shot).
Many parents ask me at what age their daughter should be permitted to read the magazine -- expressing consternation about whether the content is suitable. First, age does not always indicate maturity but second I believe that editors and writers are hypervigilent to ensure that the content is appropriate for our demographic. If I had girls, I probably wouldn't allow them to read the magazine if they were prepubertal.
Finally, for every "despairing" young woman writing to me each month, for every direct or heart-wrenching, hilarious, strange or even downright ludicrous question that comes my way, they are all moving reminders of what is so amazing about adolescents.
But the great thing is that most of our readers are empowered enough to see Glamour Magazine's '13 Little Things That Can Make a Man Fall Hard For You' for the sexist crap that it is.

Funniest Gay Comedy Created in a Long Time
BGLAD decided to host a Queer Film Festival at Boise State University. Indie Media Films provided us with five films for it and one was "Dirty Magazines". Dirty Magazines had the entire audience laughing out loud throughout the whole movie. I strongly suggest watching this film. The film has different types of comedy all throughout the movie; so everyone will laugh during it. The story line is great too. Any gay male can relate to the issues presented during the movie. I own a copy of the movie and show it to all my friends, who end up loving the movie too. Can't wait to show "Dirty Magazines" again at Boise State University!!

The tale of music journalism as often told is a very male one. Rolling Stone, Creem, NME, Melody Maker. All had their great female journalists, but the usual names that come up are Lester Bangs, Charles Shaar Murray, Greil Marcus, Nick Kent, Steven Wells, and so on.
However, there's an earlier story, and a parallel one. Before the boys, music magazines catered primarily to a young female market, establishing the audience for writing about pop culture. And although teen pop mags would come to be derided by some in comparison to the more "serious" rock magazines, they frequently sold better and, in recent years, they've been critically reappraised, with due respect being given to those that paved the way with their often great writing. "What's so bad about groovy?" asked Professor Norma Coates at last month's Pop Conference , hosted by Seattle's Museum of Pop Culture.
Here's our list of some of the great teen mags of their day, right up to the present.
Teen mags first got going in the US, and Seventeen was launched in 1944 as a very civic-minded effort aimed at helping teenage girls to develop into the best women they could be. "Seventeen is your magazine, High School Girls of America - all yours! It is interested only in you... you're going to have to run this show - so the sooner you start thinking about it, the better."
Seventeen developed as the concept of the teenager did, and helped - through their reader surveys - to define that emerging market for advertisers. It published poems and stories by a young Sylvia Plath, and also from its earliest days, featured articles on music, shifting deftly with the times. In 1944, it was Bing Crosby and Cab Calloway , while in 1962, Connie Francis was the star alongside now-dubious articles such as 'Science confuses you, and math? Strictly for boys!', 'You'd like to marry young - and you probably will', and, 'You wish you knew an older man with a mustache.' But by the 90s, there were features on riot grrrl bands and Aaliyah , and around the turn of the millennium, the resurgence of the pop market saw female pop stars making the cover as often as models, from Christina Aguilera and Pink to Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez .
The oldest magazine in this list, Seventeen is still rolling with the punches with a circulation of over 2 million. You can read more about its impressive history in Fashioning Teenagers: A Cultural History of Seventeen Magazine by Kelley Massoni.
Published by Dundee firm DC Thomson - best known for The Beano, The Dandy and Oor Wullie - Jackie ran from 1964 until 1993 with the subtitle 'for go-ahead teens'. It focussed mainly on romance and teen life with a strong focus on pop (its first cover star was Cliff Richard , the second Joe Meek protege Heinz , and the third George Harrison ) and was the best-selling teen mag for a decade.
One of its first teen writers was future children's author Jacqueline Wilson, who joined the staff age 17, and models featured in its photostories and fashion shoots over the years included Garbage 's Shirley Manson , newsreader Fiona Bruce, Hugh Grant and Leslie Ash. It also featured weekly pullout pop posters and a Silly Star File, a section that focused on light-hearted interviews.
Throughout its classic 70s era, it featured the likes of the Bay City Rollers and Hot Chocolate . Punk was less visible, though there were features on The Clash and The Stranglers , and a "beautiful Bob Geldof pinup". In the 80s, it moved on to Duran Duran and The Human League , then in the 90s to New Kids on the Block , Jason Donovan and Bros .
Though its Cathy and Claire advice column had been controversial in its day, by this time, Jackie was starting to look a bit quaintly dated, and seeing the way the market was moving, DC Thomson opted to close the mag rather than go down the route of making it more sexually explicit and high-fashion. Jackie still holds a place in the affections of many women who grew up reading it, and in 2013, its inspired a new musical, in which Jackie, a fifty-something divorcee, uses the advice in her old magazine's problem pages to guide her back into the world of modern dating.
Published by Fleetway in the UK from 1964 to 1980, this mag - as the name might suggest - was initially heavily Beatles-focused, with full-colour pinups, a big sell in the days of black-and-white inkies. The '208' was added after the magazine signed a deal with Radio Luxembourg to print its listings from 1966, 208 being the station's wavelength. At is peak, Fabulous had a circulation of 250,000 - almost four times as much as the biggest-selling music magazines in the UK today.
Celebrity guest editors in its early days included Donovan , Cat Stevens , Gerry Marsden , The Kinks and Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich . In its later years, it moved more towards targeting teen girls explicitly but found itself outflanked on both sides by both Jackie and Smash Hits.
A glossy UK music monthly, Rave launched in 1964 with richer photography and longer articles on the 60s music scene than the weeklies. A more 'serious' approach to music journalism, covering the likes of The Yardbirds , The Byrds and The Who didn't prevent it squarely aiming itself at women, though. As well as the obligatory Beatles cover, its first issue boasted Dusty Springfield 's fashion tips and insider info on where the stars took their holidays. A 1967 issue not only featured Paul Jones on the cover but the intriguing cover line, "Rave offer: Boyfriends by computer." A 1969 issue, meanwhile, featured the face of Mick Jagger with psychedelically rainbow-hued hair and the warning: "Caution: extended exposure to this face may cause the heart to accelerate, the legs to weaken and the brain to boil."
Amazingly for a magazine with the most 60s title imaginable, Tiger Beat, like Seventeen, is still being published in the US. It was created by former teacher Chuck Laufer, who had been dabbling in mags since 1955, when his female students were telling him they had nothing fun to read. Tiger Beat stepped into the void left by the dwindling of the old Hollywood fan magazines and snapped up the new teen audience for pop. The first issue, in 1965, had a cover shared by The Righteous Brothers and a cavorting cartoon tiger, with cover lines pointing to features on Chuck Berry , The Beach Boys , Mia Farrow and The Beatles (twice).
Tiger was slang for 'hottie', and so the name indicated the mag's twin interests: sexy boys and sexy music. It focussed on non-threatening, pretty stars such as David Cassidy and The Monkees , and sometimes just launched its own, such as the DeFranco family, as Consequence of Sound reported.
During the 80s, the mag birthed two bimonthly spinoffs, Tiger Beat Star and Tiger Beat Rock, the latter featuring the likes of Duran Duran ("Why they stir your reflexes!"), Jane Wiedlin and, later, Nirvana .
Tiger Beat's core concern, though, has remained pop. In 2015, the magazine, starting to struggle, was bought by a group of investors that included the Daily Mail and music manager Scooter Braun, and subsequently revamped with an eye to becoming a multimedia teen superbrand. In a sign of the changing nature of pop stardom, the latest issue - also available online and in-app - features YouTube and Musical.ly sibling stars Johnny and Lauren Orlando on the cover. But there are still plenty of posters and quizzes.
Seventeen launched in 1944, but did not feature a black model on its cover until 1971, when Joyce Walker appeared alongside a white model. Whitney Houston also modelled for the magazine in the early-80s, again alongside a white model. But although The Laufer Company, publishers of Seventeen, initially seemed reluctant to include black people in its pages, they did however launch a separate mag aimed at the African-American market.
The 1972 first issue of Right On! featured The Jackson 5 on the cover, who, finding it difficult to get coverage to match their record sales in mainstream pop mags, were its core concern for several years, alongside The Temptations and Diana Ross . Like other teen magazine, Right On! featured makeup and relationship advice, as well as pen pal listings and fan art depicting pop idols in the back pages. In the 80s, Prince replaced the Jackson 5 as Right On!'s favourite artist, though there was still plenty of room for Michael Jackson and the birth of rap, with the likes of Run-D.M.C. , Public Enemy , LL Cool J , MC Hammer and more gracing the cover. The magazine kept going strong until 2011, when it shut down.
The lasting legend among the UK's teenage pop magazines, Smash Hits is still shaping the style of pop-oriented music journalism to this day, thanks to inheritors such as Popjustice . Its infectious enthusiasm and obsessive love of pop was tempered with irreverent - sometimes caustic - wit, and bolstered by giveaways of stickers, badges and posters. It was once e
