[sws_yellow_box box_size=”100″] February Queer Book Club! [/sws_yellow_box]

Our next meeting is the first Monday in February!

Since we read a book all about masculinity, I thought it’d be fun to read one about the femme identity this time around.

Our book is Brazen Femme: Queering Femininity

As always, we will go out for drinks/dinner at Seward Cafe!
