Another significant contribution to anti-homophobia pedagogy is embodied in the drawing of Mum. Mum is a butch woman, that is, she definitely appears to express nonconforming gender. In children’s books with LGBT family, I am not aware of any other figure portraying nonconforming gender, no obvious feminine men nor masculine women. Even though LGBT communities are full of nonconforming gender expression, even though the feminist movement was supposed to allow women of all sexualities the opportunity to trade their dresses in for suits, lesbians trapped between the covers of LGBT children’s books have mostly endured compulsory dress-wearing. My point is not that something is wrong with femininity in women, I just think that masculinity should be embraced alongside it. [...] Priestly courageously shows a loving butch wife and mother; Mum is characterized by her caring glances at family members. [...] Again, this is a powerful moment because there are rarely ever, (if any?), images of butch women mothering children anywhere. It is such a relief to open this book and find her. In this case, alternative realities of gender in LGBT lives are available for expanding possibilities in mainstream living.
