You'll Find Almost No Mention Of Technology In Most Women's Magazines

According to the 8 best-selling women's magazines in the UK, fashion, cosmetics, celebrities, lifestyle, and attractive men are the only topics women care about.
"Women's magazines do a dismal job of covering technology – forgive me if that earth-shattering revelation has caused you to spill your beverage or caused momentary disorientation," Belinda Parmar of The Guardian writes. "This fact will come as a surprise to almost nobody."
Parmar is the CEO of Lady Geek, a campaigning agency in the UK which inspires women to change the world through technology. 
Lady Geek did an analysis of this month's issues of certain women's magazines (including ones we read in the U.S.: Glamour, Elle, and Marie Claire), and found very limited traces of technology topics or gadgets.
