* Every two years, Cosmo holds an amazing event: the International Conference of Cosmo Editors. It's an opportunity for the editors of the 47 (yes, 47!) international editions of Cosmopolitan to share notes and swap advice. This year's event was tremendously inspiring. Since all the editors use the formula established by U.S. Cosmo (while putting their personal stamp on their magazines), one of my roles is to present our plans and goals for the future. But I also love getting updates from my colleagues about what's going on with their readers. Here's what I heard this year.
Australia
"Whenever we use a cover line about "bicuriosity," meaning bisexuality. Australian Casino flies off the newsstands."
--Mia Freedman, Australia editor-in-chief
U.K.
"Every June, U.K. Cosmo features 12, naked male centerfolds--they are big celebrities who pose nude for us to raise money for the male-cancer charity Everyman. Thousands of women roar with laughter or gaze in admiration at the gorgeous nude men."
