Stuff White People Like
Sure, you're an unassuming, left-leaning gen-X or Y-er who goes to the occasional independent Czech film showcase, has flirted with vegetarianism and secretly likes Kathmandu products. So what, eh? You're just trying to get on in the world, you're not bothering anyone - you believe in social justice, yeah? Of course you do.
Pornocracy
Catherine Breillat is best known for her films A Ma Soeur! and Romance. If you're a Breillat fan, you will know that her films portray a world that is more disquieting than reassuring, more intimate than objective and more corporeal than cerebral. You may call yourself a Breillat aficionado, but unless you speak French, you have probably never read her novels.
Good Sex Illustrated
In 1973, French writer Tony Duvert conducted a close reading of a series of children's sex manuals with the aim of revealing how the ‘sex-positive' culture of the 1960s had been officially rerouted into promoting the nuclear family. Perhaps because of his passionate belief in the integrity of unpoliced sex and pleasure and the contention that sex education retards what might otherwise be naturally developed sexual behaviour and attitudes, GOOD SEX ILLUSTRATED was met with controversy.
Torpedo Volume 2
Some people hope short fiction will save the world. Or, at least, they hope that within the carefully designed pages of the latest anthology or journal, a bastion of TRUTH will call out to them. Fiction writers are expected to trigger epiphanies; to elicit congruence from our jumbled up thoughts and emotions; to ask some questions and answer others.
The Abstinence Teacher
Teacher says oral sex OK!
In ThHE ABSTINENCE TEACHER, Tom Perrotta (ELECTION, LITTLE CHILDREN) takes an average North American town and adds an evangelical congregation called the Tabernacle, whose fearless leader believes Lara Croft is an "abomination" and deems "hot [marital] Christian sex" the only sex acceptable.
WON
If you're reading WON MAGAZINE, wash your hands before you touch your face, or you will end up with gridiron style under-eye war paint. Yes, WON is constructed of humble newsprint and is absolutely free (where you can get it), though its content is no hastily slapped-together assemblage of sensation like our daily rags.
Girls Like Us Issue 7
How far does your lesbigay folk memory stretch back? Could you identify six types of lesbian hairstyle?
Direct out of Amsterdam since 2005, the founding editors of GIRLS LIKE US have created a wonderful contemporary - er - rag that doesn't assume the existence of a single and complete lesbian community, but at the same time unites women who love women through distinct and sophisticated design and editorially impartial content.
