Dude: Review of a new mag for trans men

A group of Australian trans guys and genderqueer folks have launched a new magazine aimed at trans men. It's no easy task to appeal to everyone in a particular demographic and Gauche Sinister finds Dude overall a worthwhile and positive publication – but with some shortfalls regarding diversity.

DUDE magazine is a new publication, which was launched at Hares and Hyenas bookshop in Melbourne on Friday 18 February. It includes words and pictures from a number of contributors, with Jez Pez as the editor and creative director, and Ash Pike, Blue and my friend Max Attitude as contributing editors.

[...]

That said, there were a few things that jarred for me. Largely, the zine seems careful to recognise the diversity of trans men's identities and experiences – which is laudable but also makes the oversights more obvious.

It looks really good.

The only major complaint I have about it is the word "trans->-bleeped-<-" on the cover.
