Keep Bitch in Print: A Special Message to Male Bitch Supporters!

Bitch HQ post by Brian Frank on July 29, 2011 - 8:35am; tagged bitch magazine, Bitch Media, Keep Bitch in Print, men, subscribe, support.

Today I’m calling on other male-identified Bitch supporters to do their part. Bitch, like feminism in general, is not and cannot just be for women.

Let’s face it—men are underrepresented in their support for the feminist movement. A lot of men believe that feminism is just for women, or at least that they don’t have a constructive role to play. I’m here to tell you that's a bunch of hooey, and to thank all the men out there who speak up about sexism's impacts.

I’m asking every guy reading this today to put your money where your mouth is. If you support keeping one of the strongest, wittiest and most consistent voices in feminist media in print now is the time to show it.

Keep Bitch in Print: What it All Means

Bitch HQ post by Julie Falk on July 28, 2011 - 12:33pm; tagged donate, Keep Bitch in Print, subscribe, support.
Across the world—on Facebook and Twitter, through our blogs and podcasts, in classrooms, and in our very own lending library—thousands of people engage with Bitch Media. Providing and encouraging a feminist response to pop culture is important work that we intend to carry on for years to come.

The very real danger, however, is that we might not be able to continue to provide a feminist response to pop culture with a printed magazine. So we're asking you today, and we'll continue to ask over the next week and a half: Do you want Bitch Media to continue publishing a quarterly magazine?
