DUDE magazine, a community and non-profit resource focusing on the lives and loves of Trans Men, is launching this weekend in Sydney.

Dude issue 1 is available free online and for sale at stockists across Sydney, with Dude.2 is being released at the magazine launches!

Here's more details. Looks really well done:

Oh, an update about tomorrow's launch:

Because of the rainy weather the launch has moved to the upstairs hall at The Newtown Neighbourhood Centre! The building next to The Hub and directly opposite the Newtown Train Station.

I'd love to meet Jez Pez, he's bloody handsome. When I first joined SameSame I had a photo of myself as my avatar pic and mark_ thought I was Jez!!! The only compliment I think he's geniunely ever given me.

Yet I have to say Dude magazine is a great read, I learned a lot about non-cis mens issues from it and look forward to the second edition.

^ Untrue. I do praise your enthusiasm.


(I have to stop myself from staring at that wallpaper which is gaudier than that abomination on the arm. Flock wallpaper was 'the 1970s IN thing' especially for restaurants as it absorbed the sound of the chattering customers.)

Sadly I wasn't there and if I was I certainly would have introduced myself.

There were FOUR queer magazines on sale!
I asked Nick's assistant to differentiate the different niches but I couldn't hear with all those bears getting chummy
