Donate to the BEYOND HUMAN Issue of Lickety Split! #7!
















You can do it! If you have PayPal and believe in the bright and horny future of this paper project, please donate by sending a meaningful donation of any amount to the following e-mail address: a@licketysplitzine.com . Issue #7 is being launched Nov. 21st. Stay tuned for more details.

Our zine launches, Slow Dance Night parties and subscription & zine sales all contribute to off-setting the cost of this big and beautiful zine, but we still struggle from issue to issue. So we just wanted to share a new way to support the zine! Yay! What're you waiting for?

Thanks in advance!

Why we do what we do in the age of the internet

"no one needs a smut zine when we have access to unlimited free porn on the internet" - anonymous person on a message board

Just in case you're unfamiliar with Lickety Split and would like a refresher on WHY we do this, here you go:

Lickety Split is a niche publication catering a particular community of people and we don't pretend to try to compete with mainstream porn in any form. We are definitely a zine and as such we endeavor to create something relevant to our own experiences and interests in a collect-able format that resists the commodified and disposable representations of sex and sexuality.

We still work with/have ties to other types of porn/smut and consume it ourselves along with more independent porn. We don't exist in a vacuum. We just enjoy making our own stuff.

MORE ABOUT LICKETY SPLIT:
Lickety Split is a pansexual smut zine dedicated to encouraging sex-positive expression and thought. The zine promotes collaborative art making and encourages diverse contributions to climb into bed with one another, because one sexual expression just does not satisfy. Lickety Split wants to help make the masses cum with smutty photography and art, essays and stories in order to fulfill the whole human being and address the complexity of sex.
