Jess Fink

A very nice review of my new comic We Can Fix It on Publisher’s Weekly!

http://reviews.publishersweekly.com/978-1-60309-065-0

“Of course, raunchiness does ensue, but the overall message is of thoughtful self-discovery, with Fink’s light touch still managing to bring real emotion to the page.”

New summer fashion all the teens are wearing

Spring is here, time to air out your pubes

What students need isn’t a lecture on abstinence. They need a community that sees sex as about mutual pleasure and intimacy, not point scoring or getting something, and that doesn’t shame or problematize female sexuality. Heterosexual women need male partners who are respectful, generous in bed and emotionally competent, and who treat women like people regardless of whether those women are girlfriends, one-night stands or friends with benefits. Sex, be it in a committed relationship or a more casual arrangement, doesn’t have to be the fraught power play or unpleasant interaction merely tolerated by young women. Sex is sex. Human beings throughout all of history have enjoyed it for very good reason. Consensual, mutually pleasurable sex is, for many people, at the top of their “favorite things” list.
