Program |
The magazine is oriented primarily to women, particularly members of “Žensko društvo“ and its “podružine“ (branches). Its main intention is to report on activities of “Društvo“ and “podružine“ and to give all relevant information and provide an insight into social developments that influenced the well-being of families and the social advancement of women. The dominant topics, divided into separate rubrics are: upbringing and education (“Vaspitanje“), health and hygiene (“Higijena“), stories with a moral message (“Pouka“), housekeeping (“Gazdovanje“), entertainment (“Zabava“) and activities of “Žensko društvo“. |
Feminine |
Being the official publication of “Žensko društvo“ and its “podružine“, the magazine is a typical magazine for women. It is a combination of a feminist magazine and a magazine for housewives – it reports on activities of women’s associations and advocates the emancipation and an equal position of women in society, while at the same time it emphasises the importance of women in the home and household. Under the “Rules of Žensko društvo“, “a regular member may be any female person, either married or single, regardless of her religion and ethnicity, aged at least 17“. |
