KYLE BOWER
Kyle lives in Athens, GA with her spouse and four-year-old son. In 2019 she became a board member for Athens Pride.

In the United States, the Sexual Revolution began in the 1960s when many Baby Boomers (born 1946-1964) were approaching their sexual prime. This made for spectacular stories of free love, sexual exploration, and redefining gender roles.
Recently, I was introduced to Christopher. He and his husband, Heroildo, live in Atlanta with their children. But, before they became parents, they looked around to see what they could expect as gay parents in the South.
