'The Natural Mother of the Child: A Memoir of Nonbinary Parenthood'

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Jun 25, 2021

Writer Krys Malcolm Belc is transmasculine and nonbinary, but after he gave birth to his son, legal documents listed him as the “natural mother of the child,” a term that didn’t exactly fit his identity. Belc explores gender identity, the idea of motherhood, and parenting in his new book, The Natural Mother of the Child: A Memoir of Nonbinary Parenthood.
