Feministfx

After having a look at your magazine [June edition, issue 187], I came to realise that it’s jam-packed with politically correct feminist material on almost every page. Is this what gender “equality” looks like? You really should change the name of the publication to Feministfx to more accurately reflect its content. It’s also the reason I have stopped buying new comic books, which should be reclassified as “indoctrination” books.

Claire replies Hello John, thank you for your email. I replied to enquire which pages in particular from our June issue caused you offence, but you didn’t respond. Therefore I’m a little perplexed to know exactly which bits you consider to be “politically correct feminist material”.

The term ‘politically correct’ is used – usually pejoratively – to describe words or actions that are intended to avoid offending or causing disadvantage to members of particular groups in society. I’m incredibly happy to describe Imaginefx in this way. We’re an art magazine that celebrates art and artists in all their forms.

You mention that you’ve stopped buying new comic books. That’s your choice of course, but the changing content of comics reflects the positive changes that are going on in society, embraced by countless comic readers around the world. Sometimes it’s hard to accept that other people don’t share the same views or outlook, but we’ll only move forward if all voices get heard.
