Maybe this wouln't be a bad idea, but at the same time does one agree that some of the female magazines generally targetted at teenage girls should also be similarly restricted? Due to the fact that some of their contents have been proven to have a detrimental effect on young females?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Richard, I suspect that aog means the suggestion that magz aimed at teenage girls have increased such problems as anorexia etc.
As for the question, well I'm female, and having read magz aimed at both teenage boys and girls, I have to say that I think the girls magz are worse in regards their approach to sex, alcohol, etc.
There is one (girls mag) in particular (and I'm talking about 10yr ago, so it may be different now), that I used to buy, which had "position of the fortnight" (with instructions, diagrams and endorsements from couples who had tried it)! It also had a section of "embarrassing stories", most of which were readers writying in about the time they were so incredibly drunk, or the time they were caught having sex by ther parents etc.
and I know this mag was really aimed at older females, but was widely available to mid teens.
Girls magz should be similarly restricted IMO.

So are the Sun, Star and Sport also getting an 18 rating? Unless they introduce some sort of nipple count can see how legally you can classify a lads mag without it referring to nudity in some form which those papers and plenty of other magazines getting included.
Personally I couldn't care less one way or the other about it.
As to your point, yes totally agree.
