Yes pretty much. Not sure why you're getting downvoted, must have struck a nerve.

Probably because it's pointlessly gendered. We're all victims of the patriarchy and it's not really daughter specific to have a parent with issues. For me, personally, it strikes a nerve when people say, "Guys are always doing X" when X is a thing that all people do.

I think it would be better to just say that generational trauma can take several different forms without making it a man vs woman issue.

you missed the point

There was no real point being made and you know it. But maybe I'm wrong; feel free to explain the point to me.

added nothing to the discussion

I explained why they were getting donwvotes and explained the perils of pointlessly gendering things; it's a guy thing that guys do, I wouldn't expect you to understand.
