" I love my family." and " you can read by her light." were heart warming moments. Happy pride.

It just demonstrates that kids don’t have a prejudice against gays, hatred of others is something that is taught. It also demonstrates that teaching kids about different families (a mom and a dad, two moms, two dads, single mom, single dad) will not cause them to be anymore than a kid.

Stephen on his wife: "you can read by the light of her". That is the most adorable thing I've ever heard.

I love that Tig & Stephen are genuinely good enough friends to have their own "handshake"

[ericthompson]

Tig is absolutely one of my favorite comedians of all time. She is brash, bold, courageous, smart, kind, and absolutely inoffensive. She is 100% the real deal.

""you can read by the light of her, " if someone said that about me I would swoon.

I understand the story about her son not knowing that his moms were gay. When I was growing up I heard all the schoolyard slurs, but never really understood them. Even when I was 12 and my older brother said he was gay l didn’t understand. He explained that he loved men. I understood what love was, but the sexual aspect of love wasn’t yet on my radar. So, yeah, an eight year old being a bit confused? I understand that. ❤

[MammaMaisel]

I love your son's perspective. It is a testament to your parenting. Love is love. Family comes in different shapes and sizes. To him, it just is. And it is beautiful.

I hope Tig compares this interview to ANY interview from 5 years ago or longer.
She smiled, and was just joyful through the entire interview. It's so great to see Tig so utterly happy. She deserves it.

[ellenpederson-lewis]

She is hilarious! Great energy and amazing timing.

3:36 lmao “they’re like you feed us and that’s wonderful, they’re not like that’s so gay of you” 😂

[jojotheswede]

I know exactly what she means with the quiet shuffling part, it's prevelant in my family. It's like we're a bunch of the worst ninjas.

[jillclarke]

So nice two talented people in loving relationships. When your child says I love my family you are doing something right.

Kids that age don't think in such categories.
The family they grow up in, is simply their "normal".
They only learn thinking in categories by us grownups.

Stephen about his lovely wife Evie: "You can read by the light of her!" 😍

[jkit]

It’s beautiful that the kids didn’t have a ‘label’ for their parents beyond ‘Mom’ or ‘Family’. This how the world was meant to be.

[virginiaf.]

Stephen, "you can read by the light of her" has to be one if the most beautiful things a man has ever said about the woman he loves.

[Ramsicle]

8:39 “Is that on the card?” “No, but that’s okay you can still tell ‘em.” 😂

[calexprenas]

She is always so charming and hilarious

[amberbranch]

There's no prejudice in a family of no prejudice. They didn't think you were "what? the butler"?, hahaha. They just think you are ...Mom. And obviously a great one. Happy pride! To all y'all. LOVES! Top fave (and yes, sexy) comedian :-)
