A funny bullshit-free and surprising history Queer families have always existed Even
Sappho the OG lesbian had a daughter named Cleis in honour of vaginas everywhere! For
centuries the women of ‘The Golden Orchid Society’ in Qing-dynasty China were getting married
and raising daughters together – platonically obviously... And Vita Sackville-West and Harold
Nicolson’s fabulously bisexual open marriage proved women really can have it all – a husband
two kids a writing career and Viriginia Woolf. Maybe you’re exploring your options. Maybe
you don’t want kids but you have questions . Either way Kirsty Loehr provides another
rollicking guide to the ups and downs of queer parenthood through the ages.
