Blemish girl

Blemish girl (199?-?) was a feminist zine published in Australia. A description of the zine in The new pollution, page 71, describes Blemish girl as follows: "Featuring articles, essays, music, film and record store reviews, all in a strong female vein. Blemish is the alternative to plastic pop versions of girl power and pseudo-girl friendly media. This is the real thing, written by girls for girls, and dealing with everything from music to relationships to body image, media, sexism, food and culture. Best of all, its not afraid to be controversial or kick ass. The Blemish philisophy is 'let your ugliness be your power'. Say all those things that you are told you aren't allowed to say. SAy the LOUD. And get ready for the girl power revolution!"
