Asters, both philosophically and historically, symbolize love. In the context of the Critical Gender Studies Journal, the aster flower serves as a powerful symbol. It mirrors the fundamental values and objectives of the field: diversity, resilience, and beauty. The CGSJ aims to empower individuals to celebrate their gender identity and expression. By adopting the aster flower as its logo, the CGSJ encourages people to challenge societal norms and stereotypes that restrict their potential.
