Editor’s note<br />
Dear Readers,<br />
In a society that seems to be turning<br />
increasingly conservative, it isn’t<br />
everyday we are able to talk about<br />
issues such as sex, or anything<br />
pertaining to our basic biology without<br />
welcoming a torrent of aggravated<br />
retorts, if not worse. If history has<br />
taught us anything though, restricting<br />
open discussion of issues considered<br />
“uncomfortable” only leads to more<br />
problems, simply because any form of<br />
suppression is hardly ever a solution.<br />
This week’s magazine features<br />
a piece that talks about the issue<br />
of silence around sex, and how it<br />
contributes towards creating a hostile<br />
environment where people are afraid<br />
to voice even basic queries about our<br />
bodies.<br />
We also have a couple of interviews<br />
of two people from vastly different<br />
educational and professional<br />
backgrounds, but both having<br />
achieved a great deal in their field of<br />
work.<br />
Finally, for all the gamers out there,<br />
we have a fun list of the top ten<br />
classic games of the 90s.<br />
Wishing our readers a pleasant<br />
weekend.<br />

We’re in a sink or swim<br />
situation, where technology<br />
is taking us forward, but age<br />
old prejudices hold us back.<br />
What’s it going to be?<br />
