I'm pretty sure there is someone here that can truthfully answer that question, assuming it's a serious question and he actually he wants to respond of course.

My guess would be both of course. That's what I would do if I were in that situation.

The one that is less butch. In a lesbian relationship one of them always assumes the role of the man, the leader, the pants wearer (faded jeans, with a black belt, of course).

You rang?

In my experience, growing up with lesbian mothers (which I guess could be considered relevant experience), neither. They both thought it was a Hallmark holiday and taught me to be respectful of them regardless of what day of the year it was. It helped that one of my mother's birthday was on May 2nd, and my birthday is May 5th, so we'd frequently have a dual birthday party on Mother's Day weekend, rendering it slightly moot.

But the damndest thing: last year we were having a party on Mother's Day and my mother got upset that neither my brother nor myself had bought her a Mother's Day present. It was the first time either of us remember her ever requesting anything for Mother's Day. Consequently, this year I'm prepared, with gifts that can serve for either along with a generic card that makes no reference to anything. Check and mate.

Back to the original question at hand: Would it have been the case that either of my mothers supported Mother's Day while I was growing up, I would have bought/made them both gifts. But they would have been half as expensive. Which pretty much goes to show that no matter how you slice it, lesbians get screwed on Mother's Day.

Thanks, that's what I would have thought... but you have to ask.
