Diana Cage (born July 16, 1969) is an American feminist author, editor, cultural critic and radio personality. Her work examines sexuality, feminism, and LGBT culture. She lives in Brooklyn and teaches at Pratt Institute.
Cage began writing about sex and culture while interning under editor Lisa Palac at the San Francisco-based magazine Future Sex. In 2000, Cage's editorial work and extensive writing on sex and sexuality converged when she was hired as editor at the landmark lesbian magazine On Our Backs. During her tenure there, Cage operated the magazine according to her radical beliefs about sex and sexual identity, expanding the magazine's vision of what constituted lesbian sex. Erstwhile publisher of both On Our Backs and Girlfriends (magazine), Heather Findlay, praised Cage's "lack of self censorship" as an editor, saying, "[Cage] is not uptight about all forms of lesbian sexual expression. She really has no prejudgments about alternative sexuality." Cage has likewise been praised as an "unapologetic pioneer" in the evolution of progressive, sex-positive lesbian culture.
Cage resigned as editor in 2005, after editing a number of On Our Backs anthologies. The Publishing Triangle named Cage's On Our Backs Guide to Lesbian Sex one of the Most Notable Books of 2004.
From 2006 to 2009 Cage was host of The Diana Cage Show on SiriusXM The show was celebrated for Cage's bombastic monologues, incisive commentary on current events, and unflinching advice on love and sex.
In 2004 Cage published the IPPY award nominated, Box Lunch: A Layperson's Guide to Cunnilingus. Subsequent books include Threeways: Fulfill Your Ultimate Fantasy, and Girl Meets Girl: A Dating Survival Guide, as well as the On Our Backs Guide to Lesbian Sex, and On Our Backs: The Best Erotic Fiction. Her writing has been included anthologies, journals and magazines. She was a regular columnist for several magazines including Girlfriends, Kitchen Sink, Shewired, Frontiers, Good Vibes, Ourchart, and Velvetpark. In 2008 Cage was named one of GO magazine's 100 Women We Love.
