We’re diving into graphic memoir Are You My Mother, fittingly written by Pia’s literal (figurative) biological mother Alison Bechdel. We talk about mom trauma, the “two genders” of color, and God. You know, the usual stuff.

Does this episode pass the Bechdel test? And will your reading group pass the Bechdel test when discussing this episode? Does the Bechdel test pass the Bechdel test?
