This is a list of magazines primarily marketed to men. The list has been split into subcategories according to the target audience of the magazines. This list includes both 'adult' pornographic magazines as well as more mainstream ones. Not included here are automobile, trains, modelbuilding periodicals and gadget magazines, many of which are primarily aimed towards men.

General male audience

These publications appeal to a broad male audience. Some skew toward men's fashion, others to health. Most are marketed to a particular age and income demographic. In the US, some are marketed mainly to a specific ethnic group, such as African Americans or Hispanics.

Men's lifestyle magazines

Men's lifestyle magazines (lads' mags or laddie mags in the U.K. and specifically men's magazines in North America) contain non-nude photography or bare-breasted at most, accompanied by articles about the woman that is pictured (usually models, actresses or other celebrities) supplemented with consumer stories about men's fashion, cars, tools, toys, music, TV and film, sports, foods, alcoholic beverages; or "guy tales" of sexual encounters.
