What is a boy mom?

This blog is a space for thoughts, ideas, inspiration, and resources on raising boys against the tide of socially constructed and often unhealthy gender roles.

I actually despise the notion that there are “boy moms” and “girl moms.” In a society obsessed with gender roles in order to support our children and create healthy communities talking about kids & gender & gender roles is of great importance. I’ll go into more detail about my idea of a Boy Mom in the posts to come, for now, here’s Gloria:

“We’ve begun to raise daughters more like sons … but few have the courage to raise our sons more like our daughters.” -Gloria Steinem
