Reminder: Pill
Words by: Natasha Schapova Art by: Sarah Annett
Reminder: Pill. A notification I was all too familiar with, having received it at 6pm daily for the past eight years. Through high school, to graduating and moving to Russia, to moving back to Australia and changing my degree for the fourth time, the pill remained the only constant throughout my turbulent adolescence and early adulthood.

A Letter To My Younger Self
Words by: Binari Almeida Art by: Jessica La
Dear younger self,
Sex was such a mysterious and confusing concept to you back then. You felt like you knew what you were doing but looking back you had no idea at all.

CW: Racism and violence against women.
On Tuesday the 16th of March this year, in the US city of Atlanta, a man shot nine people. Seven out of nine of his victims were Asian American women, who worked at a massage parlour that the shooter often visited.

Sorry, We Only Charge Premium Here
Words by: Coby Renkin Art by: Carla J. Romano
I can’t say I consider myself an expert on Only Fans, the mechanics of a straight, cis man’s brain, nor do I claim to speak for all women in the world. I do however consider myself, with a whole lot of confidence, a feminist, with lived experience as a woman and a slight social media addiction.

The Transformative Power of Casual Intimacy
Words by: Joseph Lew Art by: Gabrielle Poh
The first time I touched another person I was 16. His parents were out of town for the weekend — in Spain or Morocco or something of the sort — and in the one hour in between the end of the school day and when he was meant to go pick his brother up from tutoring, we dug ourselves underneath his messy floral bedspread, whispering hushed secrets and tracing love letters across one another’s spines.

Andrew Bolt and Y/N
Words by: Thiamando Pavlidis Art by: Monica Ouk
Your van backs into the driveway of a stunning four-bedroom federation mansion in Malvern East. As the van beeps in reverse, you wonder to yourself who could possibly be moving out of this beautiful home in the midst of a pandemic?

Tough and Tender
Words by: Veronica John Art by: Gabrielle Poh
In society, men are told to be masculine and to ‘toughen up.’ The longer the beard, the taller the male or the more muscles they have, the more women flock to their side. This phenomenon is baffling to me. It is an unspoken fantasy society placed on males. Why should men be told to toughen up, when it’s okay to be tender?

Depravity, Dawson and DiCaprio
Words by: Kiera Eardley Art by: Madison Marshall
He’s hunched over a poker table, cigarette dangling from his lips, green eyes smouldering under a sweep of blond hair. He wears a heavy coat, a loose shirt and suspenders. He wins the hand — he’s going home on the Ship of Dreams. He’s the king of the world. He’s Jack Dawson. Jack. Dawson.

Sex Toys, You Rock My World
Words by: Juliette Capomolla Art by: Charlotte Elwell
It seems to be only fitting that, in a year as lonely as ever, we all turned to our sex toys for solace. Sales soared once we were all forced to stay at home last year, ironically allowing us to find company in ourselves. But it’s not like this hasn’t happened before. I mean, in the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) sex toy sales boomed, while people saved their pennies by staying inside. And what better way to waste time than with a dildo bed-side?

Not Your Fetish
Words by: Sarah Hillman Art by: Marissa Hor
“Nah, I’m not racist! I love Asian girls!” Sure about that, pal? Sounds to me like you’ve got a case a yellow fever (and sadly not the haemorrhagic disease you get from mozzies).
Intercourse Discourse
Words by Caitlin Johnston
Art by Mariah Jade Lantouris
In a seemingly progressive society that is championing sexual freedom more, how do those who are asexual or celibate feel? I asked fellow students with different sexualities and backgrounds what they have to say about not having sex.
Artsy on the streets; illegal spray-on treats
Words by Charmaine Kong Art by Bridget Melville
Okay, quick English lesson/hybrid disclaimer if you will. Graffiti is defined by the Oxford dictionary as “writing or drawings scribbled, scratched or sprayed illicitly on a wall or other surface in a public space.”
Australianisms

Owning an Australian passport is one thing, but understanding Australian slang is a whole new level of citizenship.

Top tips for oral suck-cess

Oral sex is not just a highly intimate sex act, but also considered an important part of foreplay, before your boring ol’ vanilla-ass sex.
