Girl Friends is one of such titles, although Morinaga's shoujo manga roots can be seen in almost all of her works. Of course there's a lot of moe and loli as well in this magazine, but I don't particularly care about that.
But to me it will always be a meaningless slogan, I can't see a magazine that's mentioned by the publisher and many other sites as aimed at men to be shoujo. shoujo manga for males is still manga for males.
