Drivel

As I have noted before on this site, Israel’s best-known women’s magazine is Laisha, (literally, “For the Woman;” perhaps the best translation would be Woman’s Own.) Specializing in sob stories, fashion, household tips, and advice on improving one’ sex life, for almost as long as I can remember myself it has been widely seen as synonymous with a mild sort of mental deficiency.

But no longer. Emerging from the depths, as it were, the very same articles (assuming they deserve the name) now appear on YNet, Israel’s most important source of written daily news that is visited by hundreds of thousands each day. Nor is this an accident, since both the magazine and the website are under the same ownership. Judging by the authors’ names, many if not most of which are probably fictional, they are written almost exclusively by women for women. Between them they present a unique mixture of gossip, egocentrism, self-pity, and plain silliness.

The following examples (headlines only) were collected during just one week. Enjoy.

“Amazing: This is how you can remove body hair with the aid of a spice everyone has at home.”

“Examine yourself: Wat do you know about sex”?

 

Amidst all this drivel, the editors’ contempt for their readers comes through in every word. Yet some of it is considered good enough to figure not once but repeatedly, day after day. More likely those who wrote it ran out of inspiration. Or else those in charge of the website refused to pay them for more of the same. Supposing it is representative of what today’s “emancipated” women care about, and the fact that Laisha has thousands of sisters all over the world suggests that it is, no wonder feminism, women’s lib, or whatever it is called is getting nowhere.

To be fair, though, men’s magazines, with their endless potpourri of cars, muscle, and tits, tits, tits, are hardly any better.
