In Mommy Queerest, a young pinay's world is shattered when it dawns on her that both she and her mother are lesbian. And that her mom has been raising her with a lesbian partner. And they own a house together. Plus they wear wedding rings. What's an unobservant budding young lesbian to do? Drawing on her experience as a stand-up comic and actress, Evasco narrates this unconventional mommy/daughter tale, tackling conflict with humorous insight, while illustrating the experience of being a Filipina lesbian, gay Christian, survivor of sexual abuse, and young American just trying to get some.
