The second issue of Mother Tongue is here, and it’s all about hockey. And stripping. And massage guns. And Japanese calligraphy. And peeling carrots. And buying training bras. But it’s also about the harsh realities of mothering through uncertainty, grief, and unforeseen catastrophe. It’s about the complexities of sex after children. Holding onto identity. And letting go of striving. Mother Tongue is a biannual print magazine that interrogates (and celebrates) modern motherhood through inclusive stories about art, sex, pop culture, politics, food and a few things in between. It’s not about kids or how to parent them: it’s about the nuanced lives we are living as mothers, and much more.
