So my trusty GQ Feb edition arrives in the mail today spurring up uncontainable anticipation at the autumn trends to which I should aspire. However, WARNING, regular readers will experience slow but escalating anxiety at the sight of the cover. To the horror of sophisticates and the svelte, there lay three scantily clad ladies. Now while I’m rarely the one deploring the doldrums of societal sexual objectification of womanity we must all remember this is my GQ. My private cove of style and substance. Please editors, save these harsh images for the back shelf, behind the counter, around in the corner in Dave’s boot publications.
But once the worrier wanders through the opening pages all flutters float away and the steady, tried and tested GQ returns to pure form. Chique officewares showcased include a diabolically designed fo
ur armed vase which invariably reminds me of tetra carbon bonds.Between the materialistic superficialities of gadgets, make up and fashion, GQ hits the pulse of today with an insightful exploration of President Obama and the selections he has made for key positions in the new administration. Key quote “It’s probably better to have him [insert political nemesis] inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in.”
As always, GQ puts the icing on with the baking of new lingo. Gastrosexuals are those “whose success in the bedroom begins in the kitchen.” I am definitely one of those. Finally, I have a label.
After hate at first sight, this issue of GQ lives up to the magazine’s lofty standards of style, class and vision. Overall, the picture count heavily skews towards the gentlemen’s side (as it should be); I mean how else will men know how to dress themselves?! Well done old friend!
PS. I now have my dream manbag.

Pfft, the manbag in the picture is an insipid white! Mike, surely the heavily sequin-embellished, hot pink manbag that i had suggest you buy last time was much better!
I love Obama's quote! It is true in many ways, amen to that!
.... So i have confirmed with you that it is a MEN's mag... there really is makeup advice in there? wowww
