men's life or boy's guide?

i'm a female in my early/mid 20s. a lot of the guys around my age who have magazine subscriptions are getting laddie mags, aka maxim, fhm... i don't like these boys. they are not the type of guy i want to end up marrying (if and when i do). i realize that if i do get married. it probably won't be anytime soon and most likely will not be to some early/mid 20 year old guy. but still. the magazine subscription says something.

the type of guy i prefer, if he is getting a men's interest magazine, is getting something like gq or esquire. smart and funny, but still sexy. this is a man's magazine. boys get maxim.

which are you?
