Lesbians on the Loose is a lesbian magazine published in Australia. It first appeared in Sydney in January 1990.[1] It covers news, politics, social issues, and includes celebrity interviews and stories on entertainment, pop culture, style and travel.[2]
History and profile[edit]
Lesbians on the Loose was published by Frances Rand and Jackie Scherer[3] with an initial run of 1000 copies.[4]
Originally a monthly publication it set out to keep lesbians informed about activities and events within the community. Scherer left soon after issue one [4] with Rand continuing as publisher until she was joined by Barbara Farrelly in 1994. The magazine grew rapidly reaching a circulation of 20,000 copies by the end of the decade.[5]
Rand and Farrelly sold the magazine to Silke Bader in 1998.[6] Bader continues to be the publisher to this day. It is currently published quarterly with a regularly updated website.[7] The first five years have been digitised on the National Library of Australia's Trove.[8]
