Wussy Magazine, stylized as WUSSY MAG is an Atlanta based LGBT and Southern interest magazine which showcases LGBT culture and expression in the South. The magazine was founded by Jon Dean, its current editor-in-chief in 2015. ''Wussy Mag'' publishes online articles, a quarterly arts magazine and a biannual print edition. History ''Wussy'' was originally built by queer writers and photographers who hosted events and art shows together. ''Wussy'' was launched in 2014 as an online magazine for the Atlanta LGBT community. Founder Jon Dean stated that the original purpose of the magazine was to document queer culture in the Southern United States although it has since expanded to a national scope. Dean explained the origin of the magazine's name in an interview with ''The Georgia Voice'': "I didn’t want the name to speak to one kind of experience. The word wussy is equal parts masculine and feminine, and being a queer Southern sissy is something that we are all proud to be." ...

Magazines Established In 2014
A magazine is a periodical publication, generally published on a regular schedule (often weekly or monthly), containing a variety of content. They are generally financed by advertising, purchase price, prepaid subscriptions, or by a combination of the three. Definition In the technical sense a ''journal'' has continuous pagination throughout a volume. Thus '' Business Week'', which starts each issue anew with page one, is a magazine, but the '' Journal of Business Communication'', which continues the same sequence of pagination throughout the coterminous year, is a journal. Some professional or trade publications are also peer-reviewed, for example the '' Journal of Accountancy''. Non-peer-reviewed academic or professional publications are generally ''professional magazines''.

Etymology The word "magazine" derives from Arabic , ...

Biannual Magazines Published In The United States
An anniversary is the date on which an event took place or an institution was founded in a previous year, and may also refer to the commemoration or celebration of that event. The word was first used for Catholic feasts to commemorate saints. Most countries celebrate national anniversaries, typically called national days. These could be the date of independence of the nation or the adoption of a new constitution or form of government. There is no definite method for determining the date of establishment of an institution, and it is generally decided within the institution by convention. The important dates in a sitting monarch's reign may also be commemorated, an event often referred to as a "jubilee". Names * Birthdays are the most common type of anniversary, on which someone's birthdate is commemorated each year. The actual celebration is sometimes moved for practical reasons, as in the case of an official birthday or one falling on February 29. * Wedding anniversaries ...
