Description: Zinebrief

17-year-old Kristy, a Chinese-Malaysian American working class lesbian, writes of her abusive father, body image and fatphobia, punk culture, the glamorization of oppression, and straightedge culture. She interviews Ceci Moss (Suburbia zine) and Matt Wobensmith (Outpunk), discusses Saved by the Bell, excerpts revised journal entries, and prints political art, illustrations, photos, and ads. In the Suburbia half of the split zine, half-Jewish queer femme author Ceci discusses her relationship with her mother, her gender and sexual identity. She includes a reprint from Baa I'm a Sheep on a first kiss with a girl and a reprint of an article on transsexuality from ¡Go Teen Go!
