Oh wow…if you don’t already get On Our Backs in the mail, run out to your nearest porn shop immediately and pick up a copy of the December 2004/January 2005 issue. OOB went glossy a couple of months ago (still mostly black and white though), but this latest issue unveils a total format change!
There’s been a lot of shifting around: Nina Hartley’s advice column, formerly up front, has shifted toward the back of the magazine (after the pictorials) along with the How To section; Adventure Girl joins them near the rear. Backtalk, which prints readers’ responses to questions, has moved up several pages (it’s no longer at the back, but they’re still calling it backtalk), and the quotes section has moved up to the front and is now called Media Whore. (Or was it always? I’ll have to consult my archives.) The “Page 12 Pinup Girl” (where I originally appeared, but that’s just my name for it) has now moved to page 14. There are now three major pictorial spreads, as opposed to just two, and in addition to the two fiction entries there’s also a “true confessions” story that reads like my favorite kind of smut: the true kind!
So check out all the changes in OOB, and let me know what you think. Don’t miss the Camp Trans article, which explores the experiences of the women kept outside at Michigan. And if you take the “Are You a Slut” quiz…let me know your result!
