How far does your lesbigay folk memory stretch back?
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 unites women who love women through distinct and sophisticated design and editorially impartial content.
With crossover audiences from all walks of life, GLU is a playful antidote to vanilla representations of lesbian ‘culture' and magazines like the UK's Diva. This issue features local lifeguard/footballer Bron Richardson as photographed by our very own Mia Mala McDonald, filmmaker Maria Beatty and musician Pauline Boudry among other interesting subjects (even Julia Gillard* has contributed to Issue 7!). GLU, like many brilliant things in life, is run by the small team of Kathrin Hero and Jessica Gysel and is a million times more engaging than this review.
*not actually the deputy Prime Minister, but rather, someone with the same name.
