Recently, Self Magazine criticized a woman who ran a marathon in a tutu, ranking it high on their "BS" meter as "lame." (BTW Self, calling something "lame" is not exactly PC or sensitive. HELLO!) Turns out, the runner was fighting cancer and was running through chemo. Pretty impressive and amazing. There was zero reason Self should have been nasty, condescending, and cruel - esp about a woman fighting cancer.
Self, I will never buy your magazine.

Was waiting for your comment on this issue, given your love of tutus and the incredible insensitivity displayed by Self. I only wish I subscribed so I could cancel.
David: right on! What a shame they have such a misleading title for their publication. Self implies "be yourself" to me. Not be yourself as long as you conform to mainstream culture. Shame on them.
