Grant feels that men should be a part of a women's magazine because they are a part of women's lives. The magazine involves women. It is coming from a women's perspective much more than from a man's. The submissions should in some way be part of women's experiences and expression. But I think almost any art can be that way.
Men are a part of women's experiences and women's lives.
Right now, it's an exploration of how something can be for women if it's not necessarily by women, and we certainly don't have the answers now. Ben Russell '98 was the co-editor of The Spread last semester, and is a layout editor this semester. I don't think feminism has to be gender specific. Before I got involved, I thought The Spread might be exclusionary, but after working with it, I think it is more a matter of men excluding themselves. Last semester, we had no submissions from men in either writing or art.
