Magazines aren't just delightful bits of paper to read they are statements of tribes. People by them to join a gang. They feel part of something, and people can judge each other by the magazines they read.
Would you feel quite the same about someone if you found them browsing The Spectator, Socialist Worker or Triple X Grannies?
This is even more compounded because these magazines now have their websites for dating. Some of my friends have had real success on them, I know one chum who now has a husband and a baby thanks to the Guardian dating website. I've got another pal who is using the dating website on The Onion because that's the sort of chap she would like to meet.
I'm not sure which magazine would have the right sort of readership for me. I suppose the closest is Chap Magazine but even that fine periodical isn't an exact match. They don't talk nearly enough about motorbikes even if their cravat news coverage is spot on.

How about Let them eat cake magazine?

If you used the dating service at The Chap mag, wouldn't you mainly meet chaps?
Cow would put money on The Chap daters including women armed with shoes and knives.
Consider yourself warned.
Moo!
Hey. Triple X Grannies happens to be favorite reading around the Bunny hutch.
Hippity-hop!
Scones - I do love cake so that would be a wise choice.
Ros - I think girls read it too, but it's probably mostly boys.
TTC - Really? They seem like such nice dapper sorts.
The Topaiaryiest bunny - Welcome! I must admit the articles in Triple X Grannies are very enlightening and their political coverage is second to none.
Yup. That's why Bunny reads it too.
The political coverage.
Hippity-hop!
Getting to be quite the barnyard around here. Consider "Modern Farming" or "Estate Management" magazines, what with your posts on horse whispering and comments from topiary cows and bunnies.
BB - I shall subscribe right away.
Surely one should leave polite notes in "The Lady?"
Or "Fishwives' Weekly"
Hah, I'd completely forgotten about The Lady.
