Abstract:
I wanted to swing a bat. My postpartum therapist told me, if I worked hard enough, I could “have it all.” I wanted to have a ball! I live across the street from the only womens+ softball league on the island. I begged to join it. They let me but their games were on Fridays, my only studio night away from my family. I thought I was losing my mind. Taking a crack at second wave feminisms’ shady patriarchal illusions, the divisive self, in order to reform queer family and have a little fun.
