Are New Yorkers Really Sick of Sex and the City, Or Is This Magazine Just Trying to Get Your Attention?

Time Out New York, cultural arbiter? That's sort of an interesting concept, given we generally use the magazine to find out where those free kayaks are stationed on the Hudson River this year.

But here's their new "No Sex!" cover, where they either got the film's four girls to pose for a photo shoot (unlikely) or took a Sex and the City press still (likely) and then Photoshopped duct tape over their mouths (almost certain).

You see, it's a photo illustration that's supposed to communicate New York is freakin' sick of these girls. And they might actually be right.

With a handy listicle, Time Out goes about proving its point:

1) The douchification of the Meatpacking District and the West Village
2) Julia Allison
3) The worst TV commercial ever
4) Cougars

Then again, this is the same magazine once that promoted its "Horny" issue by emailing members of the media, "Feeling hot and bothered? So are we, and we've got the boners to prove it," so expect the sort of Slate.com stunts – where they get to agree and disagree with themselves at the same time – to move copies.

In fact, that's exactly what they did:

    Not just a photoshop job with the tape, but I was just looking at sexandthecitymovieblog.com and they show that SJPs head is also pasted on from another photo. Seems like alot of work for a Lame cover if you ask me!

    I LOVE this cover. SATC is so overexposed I feel like I've already seen the movie.

    It's not just so much that this cover stinks, it's how much Time Out New York has stunk over the last couple of years. It was never great to start with but it's been so bad for so long.
