ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Lad mags

Lad mags are magazines that are specifically made for men who like to look at pictures of pretty ladies and read articles about things guys like, such as sports, cars, and gadgets. These magazines usually have a lot of pictures of women wearing very little or sexy outfits, and they might even have sections where readers can send in pictures of their own girlfriends or wives. Lad mags are meant to be fun and entertaining for men, but some people think that they can be disrespectful towards women and might encourage guys to objectify them or view them as objects instead of human beings.
