Introducing: Whore! Magazine

Yes, Whore! is the title of this new magazine starting in Spring 2010. According to sources, the magazine will touch base with the unexpected and non-conventional crowd who is sick of the commercially inclined Vogue or Glamour. It will focus not on what's "cool" at the time, but what has meaning. Here's what the magazine says:

Whore! magazine is dedicated to celebrating the current and historical qualities of women who have defined a role for themselves outside the status quo. though written word, art, design, fashion and music, Whore! magazine will create a dialogue about what women are opposed to what traditional society has dictated they should be. Whore! will also explore issues largely untouched by the mass media, while reclaiming a derogatory word that has long been used to censure those who would desire, express, resist, or simply take a different path. We intend to recognize those women, both modern and historical, who strive for experience rather than conventional "goodness" and continue to fight an age-old battle against expectation. Whore! magazine will be a quarterly print magazine investigating culture, ascendancy, shame, and the desire to be.
