Jasad (meaning ‘body’ in Arabic), is a new women’s magazine launched in Lebanon this month. Aimed at ‘encouraging free discussion of the body’ it is set to be controversial at the very least. The handcuffs in the masthead suggest the restrictions already in place on this topic. Opinion is divided, but the magazine is being sold in sealed envelopes (in Lebanon at least) to get around censorship. See the website for more information. Good luck to them.
