Uh, c- tell, uh, a l- our listeners a little bit more about what led to the creation of Gay Sons and Mothers.

Sure.

There's been so little information out there about the impact that a mother has on her gay sons.

And I am a psychotherapist.

I've been working with gay men and some of their mothers for a bunch of years, and I thought I would write an article, and I started interviewing people, and then suddenly it was like, "Whoa, this needs to be a documentary film," because this relationship is so profound and so sacred, and mothers frequently worry that they're not doing it right.

Sons frequently are either grateful or disappointed.

So for, uh, it took about eight years to work on this project, and the movie was released a year ago, and now last week we released it on YouTube, and it's going viral.

W- W- A- Along your journey, what are some of the similarities that you discovered? You know-

Describe this film to us.

Okay, so the film is about the emotional impact that a mother has on her gay son.

And I just had an epiphany 12, 13 years ago.

I found an old photograph of my mother and myself when I was about six years old.

And I was looking at this photo recognizing my mother's love for me.

And I realized, oh my God, I'm so lucky to have had a relationship like this because so many of my clients didn't have the same experience.

So I decided that I was going to do a little bit of work on this topic, a little research and maybe do a short article about why a mother's love is so important to her gay child.

So what do you see now? Do you see things changing?
