These are creepy religious magazines. Completely different genre from Sassy or Jane or Seventeen.

Sassy was such a huge influence on my teen years. It went downhill towards the end, but oh, the good years were so good.



Sassy was amazing. It was so genuine and was a lifeline to my teenage self who grew up in rural PA. A window into a cooler, urban world but not pretentious at all.

I miss JANE MAGAZINE. Especially the make-unders. The best.

They really were! It’s a shame our teens can’t enjoy these mags like we did. Life is so heavy now without them. I would read them and feel transported to another place and felt happy. I wish my daughters could feel the same way. Now I look at what is online aimed at them and it’s just not joyful, youthful or fun. It’s all tension, and stuff that’s too grown up to be worrying about in this point of their lives. It’s all so serious and in your face. What happened to having class, decorum, fun and just being a teen!

I think about this so often. Seventeen, Teen People, Cosmogirl, etc were SO good in the early 2000's. I still have a few old copies. They were the best

My daughter reads print version of Girls World and Girls life - very similar to what used to be 17 but NOT close to Sassy. I loved Sassy!

Teen Vogue?

Although it had that hot mess with its new editor-in-chief.
