How to Get a Girl Pregnant is a frank and funny memoir about a dyke trying to get pregnant. Alex (short for Alejandra) has wanted to have a baby for as long as she can remember. But one crucial element was missing in the life of this trans butch lesbian – the sperm. We follow Alex’s challenges, adventures, successes, failures, humiliations, and triumphs while attempting to fulfill her dream of becoming a mother. An animated project in late development with support from Ontario Creates and Canadian Media Fund.
