The society is judgmental to a bias degree and with a false notion of sexual equivalency between men and women, let alone for women to be accepted as the individuals to be desired at their golden age.
These Japanese magazines are doing their societal role to fall on the corrective approach to give the senior citizens “something” to be reckoned with – not so much to be “sexually” desired but the avenue to the women’s rights.
One may argue over what “they” have to offer by having their portraits on the front covers of the magazines? Do “they” have what it takes to stir the libido despite having their evening sun sets in? Perhaps this will be the chauvinist’s way of thinking, but I beg to differ because “they” have their rights too, and in this case is their self-expressions.
The society should not frown upon such initiative rendered by the magazines. For the worse case scenario, take it as a pinch of salt because no one is forced to buy the magazines.
The freedoms and entitlements of women and girls of all ages should be respected.
