Effe was a monthly feminist magazine which was published between 1973 and 1982. It was similar to Ms. Magazine.[1] Effe was headquartered in Rome.[2]

History and profile

Effe was established in 1973.[3][4] Its stated goal was to provide women with a way to avoid their loneliness.[5] The magazine inspired from the views of American feminist Shulamith Firestone.[6] Daniela Colombo was one of the founders[7] and editors-in-chief of the magazine,[8] which was published on a monthly basis.[3] The other founder was Alma Sabatini.[2] The first editor of Effe was Gabriella Parca.[9] In the 1970s Adele Cambria was among the editors of the magazine,[10] which extensively dealt with the topics of love and affective relationships between couples.[6] For the contributors of the magazine love was an abstract notion as well as a fact of daily life, both heterosexual and homosexual.[6] Effe frequently attacked mainstream women's magazines in Italy.[11]

Effe ceased publication in 1982.[4][6]
