Preferred term

feminist magazines  

Definition

  • Feminist magazines, which materialized specifically in the 1970s, are associated with a period in history when women and other marginalized groups sought to change how society thought about and constructed personal relationships. Addressing issues concerned with women's personal and social lives, feminist magazines did not undermine popular magazines as much as they provided an additional and alternative space in which issues such as divorce, marital violence, employment, and child rearing could be discussed alongside other concerns.
