Cool Hunting
Box Mag by Josh Rubin
Box is the latest in a new breed of mindful soft porn. It offers a post-ironic combination of fine art photography and illustration, literature, documentary and editorial reviews. What's best is that it's neither gay nor straight, male or female focused-- it has something for everyone without making anyone uncomfortable. But it's still very erotic.
The first issue, appropriately themed The First Time, has just launched and is available as a downloadable pdf.

Kaiserin Magazine
Eclectic, crazy and refreshing, Kaiserin Magazine should be on everyone's required summer reading list.

Box Magazine #5
Until now, the thinking person's softcore porn, Box Magazine, has (like un-thinking people's porn) been faithfully publishing in an online format only. With the work-themed issue five that launched earlier this month, the year-old publication goes print, featuring over a hundred pages of full-color photos, reviews, a Lady Sovereign interview (pictured above center), articles and illustrations.
