Claire Cavanah and Rachel Venning opened the first Babeland store in 1993 in response to the lack of women-friendly sex shops in Seattle. The store offered top quality products, a pleasant place to shop, and most of all information and encouragement to women who wanted to explore their sexuality. The store's popularity with both women and men eventually led to two more stores in New York and one in Los Angeles, as well as a thriving website.

In the fall of the year 2000 the first version of Iconique.com arrived on the Internet. 'It is time for a site where Internet Meets Style both design and content wise.' as quoted back then by its founder Joost van Gorsel. His unique ability to mix animation and music with refreshing, stylish content proved to be a winner among the internet's fashion lovers. Since its launch Iconique has been published in many magazines, newspapers, websites and books and won several web awards. 'Our goal is to create a certain vibe, by which style, fashion and a sense of creativity will be conveyed to our visitors. We want our guests to be exposed to the best. This obviously includes our most important section, Fashion & Style, with its animated editorials, Virtual Catwalk, fashion news and much more. We want to present the young and upcoming, as well as the renowned top designers.'

Avalon Media made the commitment to take Lesbians on the Loose Magazine to the next level. Already a succesful and powerful publication, the need to adapt to the changing demands of the comunity was obvious. Over the next 8 years Avalon Media developed additional products and improved the existing publication:

While Sarah Palin makes us fear for the future of women in US politics, DIVA finds there are a surprising number of lesbian hopefuls working away in the background. Words JOANNA WALTERS

We're a bunch of anonymous females who take the names of dead women artists as pseudonyms and appear in public wearing gorilla masks. We have produced posters, stickers, books, printed projects, and actions that expose sexism and racism in politics, the art world, film and the culture at large. We use humor to convey information, provoke discussion, and show that feminists can be funny. We wear gorilla masks to focus on the issues rather than our personalities. Dubbing ourselves the conscience of culture, we declare ourselves feminist counterparts to the mostly male tradition of anonymous do-gooders like Robin Hood, Batman, and the Lone Ranger. Our work has been passed around the world by kindred spirits who we are proud to have as supporters. It has also appeared in The New York Times, The Nation, Bitch and Bust; on TV and radio, including NPR,, the BBC and CBC; and in countless art and feminist texts. The mystery surrounding our identities has attracted attention. We could be anyone; we are everywhere.

Un festival, c’est toujours un peu la même chose et pourtant chaque année différent. La continuité, c’est la curiosité, l’ouverture au monde et à ses cinémas, la diversité des films, de leurs formats, de leurs sujets. La différence, ce sont les points de vue mis en avant, les lignes de force qui s’affirment, les parti pris qui s’expriment. La 14e édition du Festival se déroule dans deux salles, le Rex et le Latina, pour un voyage en images des Grands Boulevards au Marais. Les fidèles y retrouveront les inédits, les avant-premières, la grande place offerte à cet espace d’audace qu’est le court métrage, le mélange des genres à tous les sens du terme, cinématographique et identitaire.

Journaliste spécialisée dans les contre-cultures, le Japon et l’art déviant, correspondante depuis huit ans de la revue japonaise S & M Sniper, je suis l’auteur du livre d’art Fetish Mode (éd.

Many, many years ago, the 5 of us lamented the death of the smut rag. We had grown up under the legandary mantle of Playboy and its innocence, Penthouse and its penetrative expostions, and (for the lucky ones among us with cool older brothers or pervy dads), the no-holes barred Jugs and Hustler. But then the Internet came along, and suddenly all the Vaseline™ on the lens couldn’t justify paying for porn when there was so much of it for free. And yet, we remained unsatisfied. Sure, there was sometimes amazing porn to be found online, but it lacked the polish, the sheen. Plus, all joking aside, we missed the prose aspect of the smut magazine. As they say, the brain IS the largest sex organ (except on Chris, because DAMN. We’ve seen him in the shower.)
