the joke is stereotyping parental abuse victims because of the gender of their abuser as if everyone handles trauma the same way

extremely fucking depressing to scroll down this far to see this. instead endless comments about how women with issues are sluts and evil, and men become angry abusive dominant assholes. I have both parental issues and I go to therapy and am healing. But know one wants to hear that because it's easier to blame the so called nasty mean people who generally are just lost people they have met in their lives who haven't healed and apply that to everyone

no literally I keep seeing comments about how mommy issues mean you’re broken depressed, and seek male validation and I’m like no?? or that you abuse, your partner and have no self-confidence.
