The cover this month is an homage to the now-classic cover of X Magazine #1 and Exotic Magazine #3 (both waaaaaay back in 1993 and featuring Kimber's butt), and to the exquisite body of a beautiful little girl named Brandi who works on stage at Sassy's and behind the counter at Christie's Toy Box (503-771-9979). You can also see Brandi in our Exotic Pin-Up on page 25.

Speaking of pin-ups, they seem to be on everybody's mind lately. Pin-Up creator extraordinaire, Hugh Hefner, who started Playboy back in 1953, turned 70 last month (Hefner is only two years younger than Senator Bob Dole???); one of the biggest Pin-Up girls of the late 80's and 90's, Pamela Anderson, stars in her first big film Barb Wire this month; and Theresa Reed, the esteemed editor of this fine rag you're holding, begins the first of (hopefully) many pieces on the history of pin-ups in "Cheesecake Deluxe" on page 5.

The second feature article this month is from a first-time contributor from San Francisco, and a regular contributor to one of our favorite magazines, FAD- Richard Blackhawk informs us on a controversial new trend in female sexuality, the realities of the female ejaculation, in "Real Women Squirt".

Finally, Rex Breathes pulls us into his twisted little fetish mind again in "She Stands Majestic", with fresh new art from another new contributor, Brandon Bernard.

Of course, our regular columns are all running this month, and we have several new ones beginning in the next few months including one by noted boot fetishist Jimmy Doyle ("These Boots Are Made For Gawking", Exotic, April '96), a legal column on first amendment rights by national columnist and consumer advocate Micheal Ross, and a possible "Best of Loveline" column direct from KROQ's famous call-in show.
