Symposium on Sex and Sadism in Science Fiction was a44-page, one-shot fanzine published in May 1953 by David Gardner. It was the subject of discussion at the Coroncon, the 1953 Eastercon:

Frank Milnes too took his opportunity and rose up from the body of the Hall to flog a copy of Sex and Sadism Carnell, who had been talking about it for ten minutes without having read it.

  1. Presumably a reference to 'The Veiled Woman', a story in Fantastic (November-December 1952).
