FHM, an acronym for For Him Magazine (or For Horny Men, as the Philippines edition has it), is a monthly men's magazine (of a type known as a lads' mag). The magazine was first published in 1994 in the United Kingdom but has subsequently expanded internationally. As of July 2004, it publishes 27 editions per month including editions in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, France, Taiwan, and the Philippines.
FHM, produced by the consumer media division of publishing giant EMAP , was launched as a response to the success of Loaded, launched by IPC Magazines the previous year. Like Loaded, FHM relies heavily on the appeal of photographs of scantily-clad women. Unlike traditional pornographic magazines however, FHM prints photographs of women already famous for reasons other than their beauty - such as actresses and pop singers. Also unlike in PlayboyPlayboy is an adult entertainment magazine founded in 1953 by Hugh Hefner, which has grown into Playboy Enterprises, Inc. NYSE: PLA, PLA. A , reaching into every form of media. Playboy is one of the world's best known brands. The magazine has a carefully and its ilk, their genitals and nippleNipple is, generally, the name given to the mammalian nipple, or to things resembling it, such as the tip of an artificial teat or the tip of a grease secreting mechanism in machinery. Anatomy In anatomy, a nipple or mammary papilla is a small projections are hidden by underwear or props. This is for two reasons: Firstly the women they feature are sufficiently famous to be able to make demands as to the degree(s) of nudity of the photos; Secondly it lends the magazine a more respectable air. Thus FHM is typically stocked in the lifestyle rather than adult section in newsagents and it is regarded as socially acceptable to read the magazine in public.
The magazine is printed on high-quality glossy paper and the photography is of high technical quality. The format allowed FHM to become the best-selling magazine in Britain during the mid to late 1990s - selling 700,000 copies per month. Towards the end of the decade the lads' culture in which the magazine thrived had begun to die off and publishers turned to celebrity-oriented titles to boost overall sales. Heat overtook FHM as the UK's biggest selling magazine.
As well as the photo shoots, the magazine contains articles on a wide variety of topics, including profiles of sports stars, movie, music, technology and book reviews, gossip, men's fashion shoots, the "bar scene" in a variety of locations, and extensive discussion of sexual techniques. The magazine is written in a notably "laddish" bar-room discussion style, by comparison to the more literary style of PlayboyPlayboy is an adult entertainment magazine founded in 1953 by Hugh Hefner, which has grown into Playboy Enterprises, Inc.
