I thought Carole Shaw coined it. I know Dimensions rather well, and I thought it started after BBW Magazine. I had a subscription in my late teens to both but clearly Dimensions was more sexually driven. I'm not the biggest fan of Conrad but I appreciate that the magazine was there when I was discovering the community.

I also remember the pantyhose and they were sold in the magazine.

Wonder what every happened to Radiance ..that was a pretty empowering publication back in that period.
