Yeah, well, she said this thing. She's like, I'm really proud. I like impersonating my mum. I'm really proud that I brought my kids up without religion. I really am because I've raised five children with minds of their own. I'm really proud of that. And I'm like, well done, you mum. You pat yourself on the back. Good on you.

And I was just sort of like she's having like a moment and I missed it because, I think we know why. And so I said, oh, yeah, well, what? What parenting decisions do you regret, Mum? And there's a laundry list I thought she'd go. And we talk like that a little bit. Like I'll say to Mum, Mum, you used to scare the bejesus out of me when I was growing up.

She said, good, I didn't like you that much. And it's funny. Like we're being funny. It's quite Australian. I think this horrifies some American audiences when I say that. It's like it's fine. But...

She wasn't going there, so she was being thoughtful and then she just said a thing that blew my mind and it was the C that became my show, Nanette, where she's like, you know, the thing I regret is that I raised you as if you were straight. And I'm like, I just like, because when you, when you, the coming out story is all about, will people accept you?

And mum just did all this work and I didn't know. She went way back and she went to a place that not many people are at now. She's like pushing 80. And she's like, oh, I shouldn't have assumed you were straight. And I wasn't your friend. And I should have been. She said, I knew. I'm just committing to mum's voice here. She's like, I wanted you to change because I knew the world wouldn't.

And she's right. The world didn't change. And I was just sort of like because when you – When you're coming out, it's overwhelming. Like you're just ready for the rejection and it is all about you. It has to be all about you.

But the telling of our coming out stories, telling of a lot of trauma stories, we are freeze framing on that moment of trauma and we don't then have a lot of public discussions about these moments because we live in a punishment society. Like we don't give room for restorative justice, let's call it. And the art history informed that part of it for me.
