 The definition of third-wave feminism July 21, 2008
J. Frey (San Francisco, CA)
Third wave feminism is often summed up be referencing this classic mag. It's a fun and intelligent read, and a genuinely viable alternative to the fluff generally marketed towards women.
Why Bust is Awesome June 30, 2008
Caroline Sinders (Houston, Texas United States)
I started reading Bust when i was 16 and have been reading it for the past four years. Most magazines that were marketed towards my age bracket (17, Cosmogirl) felt so stupid and vapid, i mean, who really cares about cover up and what he is thinking? I wanted something...smarter...and funnier. And i found Bust! It's funny, b/c its one of the few magazines that has managed to still be engaging and entertaining and so awesome, even as i age. Not only that, its talks about politics and women based issues in a way that is humorous and not overly angry or preachy. And it has fashion! It's got fluff and substance and i like that.
fun magazine August 5, 2007

This magazine is always fun, and always a little annoying with its feminism and excessive sex toy ads - but it also has a lot of great advertisements that always turn me on to new websites to buy unique clothing, art, and other cool items(of the non-dildo variety). There's always a little DIY project or a few in it, which is my favorite, part, but on occasion, that project will be as lame as the story one of their writers did, biting off one of my favorite authors, with a bit about how great Olivia Newton John is- just to point fingers where finger pointing is due). Anyway, point is, I knew the ups and downs of the magazine, when I subscribed to it, so since there really aren't too many magazines that have the good aspects of this one, I'm willing to pay for the whole package, faults and all. But I still think they should fire that broad who wrote that piece. What a copy cat!
Great magazine for girls/women who are a little or very offbeat May 26, 2007

This is one of my favorite magazines. I've been reading it for around two years now. I'd say if you weren't inclined to liberalism, do it yourself projects (clothes and other things), feminism, or other somewhat "unique" interests in music, movies, and books this magazine isn't for you. You still might enjoy it, but I wouldn't suggest picking it up if any of those things listed don't interest or describe you.
This magazine does have its faults though. They act sometimes as if those who don't share their views are either less intelligent or just plain odd. That's not extremely usual, but you do run across it every now and then. It's not as if they put down other view points, but they do make a quiet point in letting the reader know what point of view is probably "preferred."
Still, it's a great magazine that brings something more to the table than just "how to get a man," "how to satisfy your man," or "Lindsay and Paris are the best!!" Also I love how women who are not incredibly mainstream are featured on its covers - and how the magazine targets different races and differet body shapes without making it a point to say that they are doing it to be nice to others (or to suddenly have these different images in an issue titled something like: 'Everyone is awesome! Girls should love themselves!'). They just do it because that's how women/girls are, which is greatly appreciated.
for independent, strong women with a hidden girly side March 24, 2007

I really enjoyed the magazine, it's an overall fun read w/o being full of fluff or overly political. It's not super femminist but for those of us who are independent, strong women but still like a little fashion and some cooking in our lives, it's a great read. I really enjoy the sometimes quirky and sometimes great recipies and DIY projects (like Chai tea from scratch and an earth friendly tote made from recycled grocery bags). The sexuality parts are definately w/o shame and will address anything, but if other mags can talk abt how to pleasure him than why can't Bust talk about how to pleasure yourself? The book, movie and music reviews are often quite good and smart. The fashion sections are a bit cliche indie/punk at times but enjoyable. Overall it doesn't focus too much on any one section but is definately worth paging through.
