Description: Hoax is a compilation zine created by Sari and Rachel that discusses feminism "in relation to different aspects of day-to-day life. The theme of issue 9 is "vulnerabilities." The contributors discuss being vulnerable when communicating about triggers, abuse, disability, or incontinence, as well as roles that have required vulnerability like caring for dying parents and publishing a zine. There is an interview with Daniela Capistrano, founder of the POC Zine Project, a piece from a mental health worker about the American mental health system and its failure to properly counsel people from other cultures and religions, feelings regarding transphobic and femme-phobic behaviors in the feminist community, and a person's personal experiences using BDSM and using rape fantasies to reclaim sexuality after being sexually assaulted. Each issue has a section highlighting amazing feminists both past and present.
