Lesbians Raising Sons
Jess Wells
Lesbians are having babies left and right, and, as Jess Wells points out in her introduction, lesbians who conceive via donor insemination have a 65 percent chance of bearing a son. Times have changed from the radical lesbian separatist days of the ’70s and ’80s when male children were unwelcome at some lesbian events and communities. Still, raising a man-child in this culture is not an easy thing for lesbians to do. Wells, who has a son, has gathered a wide range of personal essays by lesbian moms including Jenifer Levin, Robin Morgan, Lillian Faderman, and Merril Mushroom that describe the rewards and problems of being a lesbian mom.
