re: #237 Learned Mother of Zion

My grandmother only had one son, and I am likewise the only son in the family. After I finally got married, my grandmother would - very subtly - imply that I should get with the procreating right away, and that I had better have a boy (she left off the “or else”, thankfully). When my firstborn did, in fact, come out as a boy, she actually apologized to me and said that she would’ve loved him even if he was a she. I had to laugh.
