Cosmopolitan began in 1886 as a family magazine and by the early 20th century had become known as a literary magazine. Vonnegut had eight stories published in it from April 1954 to February 1961. Starting in 1965, it underwent a major shift under the editorship of Helen Gurley Brown from literature to the growing market for modern single career women. By the end of the 20th century, Vonnegut noted that the magazine was now "a harrowingly explicit sex manual."[1]
