ABOVE THE FRUITED PLAIN

A long-awaited letter from the folks in Pleasantville

by Aubrey Wertheim

Dear Fictitia Bickoff:

Your recent letter of complaint about the unrelenting heterosexual slant of our magazine was read and analyzed with great interest.

As a grandmother of all-queer quintuplets, your familiarity and authority in this area was immediately recognized by every staff member in both home and overseas offices.

Though we have not taken your suggestion that we rename our publication “Breeder's Digest," we have made sweeping editorial changes that we believe are reflected in the enclosed issue. Thank you for bringing this regrettable—and hopefully corrected-oversight to our attention.

Yours in pride, L. Bogus Carlton Les/Bi/Gay Bureau Chief

(new position) Pleasantville, N.Y.
