What do you mean the names could be different? The magazines I mentioned are ones that have already been publishing under those names for decades. If you have recommendations for print publications for feminists, lay 'em on me.

I mean the content probably might be great but I would not buy a magazine titled by that. The B word has misogynistic implications. You mentioned that those magazines have a hard time selling, might not be the problem of content as much as the title. It’s off putting. Some words are better buried than reclaimed.

Of the 3 mentioned, I think that one is the one that's doing the best at staying afloat, ironically. Regardless, feminist magazines of various names are having a lot of trouble competing with patriarchal drivel that teaches women to be pretty and serve men.

Of course it's staying afloat, they post content about TW that's written by TW.

Do they? I didn't know that. When did that start?

I don’t remember when it was but it’s been a few years now. Disappointing but not surprising.
