I know that I shouldn't respond to this thread since I have not been 
following it, but this statement caught my eye.

So if I wanted to sit all day and read Cosmo, should I consider purchasing 
a subscription for myself? I suppose that after an hour, I could move on to 
Vogue. But when I want to kick back and relax, I'd much rather curl up with 
my Cosmo.

by what leisure parameters might be...)
