A Webzine of Their Own

As a Jewish woman, I'm proud to say that I've contributed to some publications--and have read many others--that are geared to this particular cohort. Now, Jewish men have a 'zine of their own. As The Forward explains:
"It used to be that women, to paraphrase Virginia Woolf, needed to have a room of their own, to carve space out of a male-dominated world in which to find and share their own voices. Today, it seems, men need a room, as well. So the Conservative movement’s Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs has started a Web magazine, Mentschen.org, to provide those with a Y chromosome a safe place to explore important issues in their lives."
Good luck, guys! Sounds like a great idea.

P.S. Congrats to The Forward team on the recognitions they're receiving.
