Last year's debut of H Bomb at Harvard made Crimson alumni cringe. After being approved by the Committee for Campus Life in March and hitting newsstands at the end of the semester last May, H Bomb received media attention from as far away as France and Germany. But across town, 38-year-old photographer Christopher Anderson, whose work appeared in H Bomb, and 21-year-old Boston University student Alecia Oleyourryk saw the Harvard magazine and wanted to take things a bit further. Soon they started working on Boink, a magazine that debuted this February and "explores a little more off the boundaries," said Oleyourryk.

Each publication has its own style: H Bomb editor Katharina Cieplak-von Baldegg says her magazine, a mix of photos, poetry and highbrow essays, is probably "the nerdiest of the sex mags," while Oleyourryk thinks Boink, billed as "the college guide to carnal knowledge," is something "everyone would be interested in reading, with the possible exception of my mom." Both keep an open mind and explore all aspects of coed sex. The editors at both publications spoke to Playboy.com about getting started, the supposed friction between the magazines and the joys of dirty text.
