Welcome Bunnylady! Glad to hear from you and have you here!

I must admit that after seeing the articles I mentioned which were indeed sexually explicit and bordered on hardcore pornography (really) I stopped looking at this magazine altogether. That was a few years ago so perhaps they've changed.

BunnyLady,
Thank you for posting your thoughts on Woman's World. They have bought some of my work, and published it AND paid me promptly (and they pay handsomely). I have lots of contacts at the magazine and have developed friendships with several of the editors there. It was sad to read the post here.

I've found their magazine to be for women, about women, and to cater to the needs of women. Otherwise, I can guarantee you I would not be writing for them.

Thank you for your thoughts. As a freelance writer, and a writer for Woman's World, on occasion, I appreciate your input!

JJ

Several of my friends have published fiction in WW. They do pay promptly and well, which makes them a wonderful writers' market. I've just never been a fan of women's magazines. I'm not sure why.

Just a reminder, grapefruit does not go well with certain medications, such as high cholesterol and certain heart med's.
Be sure and check your medicine side effects first.

JawJaw, if I had known you wrote some articles for them I would definetely go back to reading this magazine!

Please alert me when you do have another article to be published in Women's World because I will surely want to read it.

Again, with all the kindness I can muster up through a computer screen, I honestly have not looked at Women's World in at least three or four years so I apologize if my comments about it offended anyone.

Just curious Ladybug,
Why did you start this thread if you haven't looked at Woman's World magazine in 3 or 4 years?

I had a bag load of them which I gave to a friend who loves them. It made me think of why I don't look at this magazine any more. I would post one of the questions a woman supposedly asked in one of the columns but it is so sexually explicit and pornographic that I'm sure Dotsie would delete it.

As I said before, another close friend of mine also finds this magazine to be offensive with the posting of questions of this nature.

Do you read this magazine so that you could enlighten me that such is definetely not the case anymore?

I do read Womans World on occasion and have never seen anything offensive in it. They always have a piece from Chicken soup for the Soul and a sweet romance story, a short mystery story, recipes and articles pertaining to women's issues. There is a section for people to send in pictures of their pets and children. (Which they pay you for) I'm wondering if we are talking about the same magazine here. Are you sure the one you read was Woman's World?
