The audience, at least, could tell the difference between starlight and real life...

...very least, I have provided entertainment value--for those males out there who have finally found a magazine they relate to; for those people who have been given a new source of stereotypes to challenge and another object to attack; or for people like my parents who can honestly laugh at both the magazine and those who attempt to take it too seriously in any manner...
