interviews Didier Lestrade, former publisher of classic French gay zines and periodicals like
Magazine (
scanned archives) and
Têtu. “Unlike many young fags today, we knew our gay history. We were learning all the time about all kinds of stuff and we were always eager to lean more…. It freaks me out to think how quickly we went from creating our own history to not caring about gay history anymore! It happened so fast. No one has even begun to collect and preserve all the material from the Paradise Garage, the Saint, etc., and now gay people don’t seem to even care.”

Sarah Nicole Prickett, who, as an
interesting fashion writer, is something of a rarity, reviews the covers of September fashion issues for Toronto’s
Eye Weekly (
Part 1;
Part 2). It is, on the whole, a sorry lot. Just for instance: “The September issue of British
Vogue stars Kate Moss, for no other reason than six months have passed and she is still not dead or, worse, fat.... The level of fail can’t be expressed even in Caps Lock.”
