Everyone Falls Under Our Umbrella

The poster on the bulletin board shows classes being offered for women's self defense. The news paper article speaks about men's fashion. While both these things don't show necessarily show queerness, it does show a movement. Women aren't always affiliated with being strong and having strength. Men and fashion aren't usually put in the same category. This is do to stereotyping, but this flyer and article show how CSI isn't afraid to experiment.
