Sexual dissatisfaction
Achieving sexual satisfaction on your own terms is of central importance to Cosmo women. Not achieving it, whether because of insecurity or for other reasons,is therefore a key problem. The example below are from the Spanish and Indian version:
I am so good at giving men fellatio that they simply don't want to make love to me because invariably they 'finish' before I have time to gain any pleasure.
It's the invariable question hovering over any first-time close encounter: will the big o make a show? Climaxing with someone new isn't always easy, but if you're turned on, there is no reason can't both peak.
Clearly the world of Cosmopolitan is a world fraught with risk and insecurity in which women have ultimately only themselves to on if they are to achieve what they want: independent,success,freedom and sexual satisfaction.
