Transgender men, universal perspective

Zine

Across the universe

Dude zine

Fans of the San Francisco-based Original Plumbing zine should check out this newish offering from Down Under. Dude, based in Melbourne, Australia, is a free, nonprofit publication that explores topics with a “queer and trans perspectives” as they relate specifically to trans men. With articles, interviews, poetry and photography on subjects such as sex, relationships, bodies and simply getting by, the zine’s publishers aim to pave the way for “smoother, less awkward interactions” between transgender men and the world at large. A hard copy of the zine is available for $3 by mail, or download a free PDF from its website. http://dudemagazine.wordpress.com.
