Yes, that's right. Soon after the new year, the first issue of MATTACHINE REVIEW will roll off the press to tell the story of the Mattachine Society, its aims and principles, and its program for aiding the solution of problems surrounding human sexuality in America today. It will be YOUR magazine; every issue will be filled with original writing, critical opinion, reviews of books, magazines and periodicals, letters, news and developments in the social, legal, religious, economic, political, educational and scientific fields related to this subject here and abroad. While major attention will be given to the problem of the homosexual, the magazine will NOT be gay, fictional, nor will it contain "food for the neurosis" of many individuals so inclined.
The Mattachine Review will attempt to capture the interest and supply information for those seriously interested in improving human social relationships-with a view to education and integration, erasure of bigotry, prejudice, discrimination, and ignorance.
Parents, doctors, educators, ministers, judges and law enforcement officials WILL find the magazine of assistance in their work. The first issue will contain articles on the legal status of vag-lewd statutes; research in the field of homosexual personality types; and the what, why and how of the Mattachine Society, among many other features, reviews and letters.
Subscriptions LACKING signature and the statement, "I am over 21 years of age" will NOT be accepted.
Rates: One Year, $2.50; 2 Years, $5.00; 4 Years, $10.00.
During 1955, the magazine will be issued bi-monthly; it is planned to increase frequency to monthly the year following.
