Gaga Stigmata is a new technological journal that “takes seriously the project of pop phenomenon Lady Gaga” and requires that its submissions be “highly polished, well written, thoroughly cited and original examinations.”
Recently, Jack Halbertsam, author of Female Masculinity (which we enjoy quoting) submitted a response to Camille Paglia’s stupid essay from last week’s Sunday Times UK:
Once a decade, Paglia, an acid tongued Susan Sontag wannabe, rents space in some national newspaper to tell us that we are all wrong about everything. Usually we are all wrong about a cultural icon we all love…or else we are all wrong about an entire movement of theory and philosophy, or we are simply wrong about our historical moment, the meaning of sex, the politics of gender, Madonna, Italians, John Donne, lesbians, drag queens, the economy, universities, cultural revolt…and now, we find out, **newsflash** we were all wrong about Lady Gaga.
