The first time an anti circumcision video isn’t some MRA going “feminism cut my pp 😭”

    My mum is the same, she’ll avoid the discussion or get really bad faith mean when pressed. Cuz of this and a few other stuff, we have no relationship now. We’d probably be fine-ish if she took 5 seconds to apologise for 3 things.

    When I went down the rabbit hole of this years back, I got REALLY angry. It took a long time for me to pull out of it. I hope you’re doing OK.

      I hope you’re doing OK.

      I appreciate the sentiment but I’ve been ok with it for a long time.

      CW non-traumatic personal parental stuff

      Pretty easy to get over it when i have a lot of evidence that my mother’s a narcissist and likely did it without regard for me at all and if my dad protested(unlikely) she probably manipulated his emotions.

        I’m sorry about all that. That’s gotta be hard to get over.

        In regards to my parents, they’re just normie centrists, so it’s a bit more surprising that they could be so cold. I feel like being boomer white settlers does this to people.
