Zine this Semester: Our Body, Our Lives

Calling all writers, poets, artists and photographers:
Have you ever worried about how you look? Know someone with an eating disorder?
Do you question the images of people you see in the media?
Want to contribute to a UVa student publication that tackles gender issues?

Contribute to S|He Said!
S|He Said is a zine produced once a semester by the club Feminism is for Everyone (FIFE).

This semester, the theme is something we can all relate to:

Our Bodies, Our Lives

Our appearance is a huge part of our identity. Our ideas about appearance are shaped by gender ideology.
What does this mean to you?
