Addie Stan

Adele Stan’s work has appeared in The New Republic, the Village Voice, The Nation, The Advocate, Salon.com, the Washington Blade and Mother Jones magazine.

A resident of Washington, D.C., Stan is a longtime New Yorker and self-described "survivor" of the punk, women's rights,  and LGBT liberation movements, as well as the sexual and digital revolutions. Since the late 70s, she has watched with alarm--and chronicled as a freelance journalist--the growing political clout and credibility, conferred in part by the mainstream press, on the extreme religious right. Her book Debating Sexual Correctness delves into controversial topics in the feminist movement and the forces that shaped contemporary notions of gender prerogatives and identities.

Using a pun on her last name, Stan bills her irreverent and wide-ranging blog Addiestan.Blogspot.com as "a breakaway republic of the mind." Regularly updated with incisive news analysis, it can be found here.
