wow ok i am now squarely in the target demographic for Chatelaine Magazine but their content is so great i'm not even mad about it, is this what it feels like to know middle age is fast encroaching?
#a very specific experience for a canadian in her thirties perhaps#chatelaine is mostly a magazine about cooking and homes and stuff#but it has always had a minorly subversive edge#in the 50s they were publishing articles like 'women: stop faking orgasms! it is bad for you and your husband!'#which is not a take you expect from a 1950s women's magazine#here in the 2020s they are one of the few mainstream media sources i've seen that has published anti-0zemp!c pieces#so you know#like i said#i am not mad#their reviews about like the best frozen pizza or the best jarred marinara sauce are RIGHT#their recipes are GOOD#their advice about whether you should install a heat pump is HELPFUL#and their opinions on women's issues are generally REASONABLE#but i do also feel slightly old
