GQ helps you look sharp and live smart. Each issue brings you revealing sports profiles, intimate photos of today's hottest up & coming actresses and models, tips on fine food & drink, sex, politics, fashion and grooming advice, The Style Guy's answers to your questions and so much more!
The "GQ look" is synonymous with classic cool and sophistication, and despite a recent outburst of trendy magazines (think Maxim and FHM) vying for the attention of young professional males, the steeped-in-tradition monthly GQ carries on without missing a beat. Yes, there's more décolletage gracing the cover than there used to be, but GQ continues to supply enough cultural commentary, celebrity profiles, features, and style guides to keep the modern man in touch with what's going on in the world from month to month.
GQ's ideal reader is probably one who actually might be able to afford any of the high-end suits, shoes, and watches featured among the countless ads packed between the covers. Though the average reader might enjoy scanning a fashion spread about steakhouses entitled "How to Dress for a Porterhouse" and reading articles like "50 Ways to Blow Your Bonus," it's unlikely that such folly holds much practical advice. Literary editor Walter Kirn keeps short fiction on display, and Alan Richman's writing on food and dining out is always entertaining, even when he comes across as borderline cranky. Two regular Q&A features, "The Style Guy" and "Dr. Sooth," run the gamut from when it's appropriate to wear a straw hat to problems in the bedroom. --Brad Thomas Parsons

Last month's issue?:
It was okay; the first magazine arrived within the time-frame specified, but the first I received was last month's issue.
Damn good magazine:
I have read GQ Magazine for almost 9 years now. This is by far my favorite magazine to resubscibe to over and over again.
GQ is a life saver:
My girlfriend detected a whiff of perfume on my clothes one night in bed after I had gone to a local strip club. She was very upset. I told her that I had been reading GQ earlier and must've accidentally rubbed one of the 500 cologne ads in the magazine against my clothes. She totally bought it. Now if there were only a way to explain the herpes using GQ.
month old magazines delivered late:
I am receiving a magazine that gets delivered on the 26th of the month and is an old issue each month. I am trying to find out why this is happening but haven't yet. Also the first issue was Feb. and I bought the subscription on Feb 25th, when the March issue was out and on the selves. So now they say my subscription will end in Jan. 2010. Received March issue on March 25, not right.
