Description
A family with two moms and a son seems pretty ordinary to many Americans in 2025. But with a Republican majority in all three branches, the rise of Christian nationalism, and the ultra-conservative Supreme court, queer moms face ongoing and accelerating challenges to their families.
The personal essays in Boyhood Reimagined ask particular questions about parenting and feminism during a time when traditional male dominance continues to shape societal expectations, limit opportunities for women and non-binary individuals, and influence political and economic power structures.
Do queer moms practicing feminist parenting raise sons with a healthy relationship to gender and masculinity? Are sons of queer moms protected from a culture of misogyny? And what important lessons do queer moms of sons have to teach other progressive parents?
