Gee, I wonder why the publishers pulled it? These people are insane. Polyamory for teen girls?

'polyamory and anal sex for kids'

It's a mystery why it bombed, eh?

What We Lost When Condé Nast Unceremoniously Shuttered Teen Vogue

Well, Allegra lost his job, and wrote a whiney piece about it. On TPM, a platform that, um, shows ads and has memberships. For money. It's almost like that's how it works?

"The company’s leaders didn’t understand what Teen Vogue was about and the value it provided, but they did understand that it caused them headaches and didn’t make them enough money"

I mean, how jolly mean of Conde Nast! Welcome to business, honey.

Sad times for Ellie.

Teen Vogue lay off 75% of staff as it is folded into Vogue.

How very telling that despite poor LGBTQI+W being so marginalized and vulnerable they were all over a "teen" magazine featuring Miu Miu, Prada and the likes
(My teen magazines advertised for the Primark of the time)

First Glamour, now this. Not a good week.for Conde Nast.

So who reads it then? Adult men?

Wasn't it being edited by two gay guys?

Are they the magazine that promoted anal sex for teen girls and forgot to include the clitoris in their diagram of female and male sexual organs?

That’s the one.

Hmm Grok says this. Very few actual teenagers read it it seems.

I don’t know if this is correct

Show quote history

Doesn’t really tell us how many actual teens are buying it. Gen z and millennials is a very wide age bracket. I wonder if that was deliberate?

Interesting that 30% are over 40. I can’t imagine the magazines I read as a teen would have appealed to over 40s. Seems like “Teen” vogue is a bit of a misnomer.

It's hilarious:

Condé leadership owes us answers – and Teen Vogue’s readership. We will get those answers.

Ha ha. And the answer is - there's no money in it any more. The grift is over.

Nearly all of these staffers identify as LGBTQ

Aaaaand there we have it...

Show quote history

If all the staffers are LGBTQ it’s not very diverse is it?

But seriously guys, Conde Nast is a business, if you had the claimed “massive readership” and a business model (ads?) they wouldn’t be shutting you down.

I don’t think so. I would be very interested to see a breakdown of the demographics of their readership.

Fantastic news.

Datun · 04/11/2025 15:40

Hopefully the end of their anal sex for teenager stories.

Stories, diagrams (anatomically incorrect), and recommendations to girls to use more lube if they are in pain.

All suggestions to their young readers, where sex of any description is completely illegal for the majority.

never mind folding, they should be bloody prosecuted.

Lol, that statement from the Union almost comes across as some woke satire that would be posted on The Onion. Talk about captured.
