Alex Is Every Mother’s Dream, He Just Happens To Be Transgender

Screen Shot 2015-04-29 at 9.37.29 AMHallmark has released a batch of videos ahead of Mother’s Day asking people talking about their moms — all saying good things, we hope. One clip that caught our eye shows Alex, a transgender man, showering love on his super-mom Pam. It’s pretty damn sweet.

But it’s also more than just sweet. Kudos to Hallmark for actively expanding the definition of a “Hallmark moment” to include LGBT stories. While it remains incredible that honoring experiences outside the norm (whatever that is) is considered political, such is the reality.

And overcoming any prejudiced viewpoint starts with familiarity  — how many right-wingers suddenly had a “change of heart” about same-sex marriage after their son or daughter came out?

Hallmark doesn’t stand to gain a whole lot by sharing Alex’s feelings for his mama, but they’ve got the right idea to appeal to the emotions of those who stumble upon the video — love is love.

Watch below, and don’t forget to call your mother:
