'Crude Intentions' is a new zine about experiences with sexual harassment.
, editor Grace Srinivasiah and designer Alex Tults asked women on the friendship app BumbleBFF to share their experiences with sexual harassment and assault. “We wanted a diversity of experiences,” Grace explains, “so we made a point not to ask any of our friends or acquaintances.” They then assigned the accounts mined from Bumble to more than 30 illustrators — including Tara Booth, Frances Cannon, Amber Vittoria and Aurélia Durand — as a way to underscore the experiences as shared.
Alex: I remember a point in time where I was telling Grace about these bizarre harassments I was experiencing. I guess some people would consider them inconsequential, but they were really sticking with me. Like this guy openly taking flash photos of my feet on the bus. I think we just had a lot of frustrations with how harassment has been handled and brushed-off, and how outside parties often assign their own judgments to how serious an experience was.
G: While I think that women’s experiences in general have been elevated in recent years, and are receiving much more attention than in the past, there is still not nearly enough space taken up by these narratives. My intention with this zine isn’t to trigger women in any way, but to hopefully make them feel understood and less alone.
A: I follow a ton of illustrators and designers on Instagram, so this is where I initially looked for artists. I have admired the work of some of our illustrators for a while and was really excited to have them contribute to this project.How does the book emphasize the collective female experience?
