"What does that mean, though, in practice? What does that look like?"

Exactly. Trying to figure that out. On the outside, it looks like I'm "Mother" in my nuclear family, but taking into consideration my sexual identity and endeavors, I have friends that don't exactly fit into the "friend space." (There's a lot of spillage, if you will, and not necessarily sexual.)

Great recommendations, especially interested in the Betancourt read.

Thanks, Tracy.

I loved this, thank you for this thoughtful synthesis! (I am also writing about Dean's book this week, of course lol).
