Gender Benders: Now I’m Your Mom

David Byrne: Now I‘m Your Mom

[purchase]

I know a couple with two kids. When the kids had both reached the age of eighteen, the woman of the couple decided to do something she had always, apparently, wanted; she set about, with her husband’s approval, becoming a man. So now those kids have two fathers.

So, what David Byrne has imagined here is not impossible. Here is Byrne’s tale of a “new” mother, explaining to her daughter what happened to Daddy. To my knowledge, David Byrne is, and has always been, male.
