“Mental illness is not your fault, but it is your responsibility.”
Same for trauma. I mean you have to deal with it, not alone if you can get help but that not the perpetrator who have to deal with the damages.
In Why Does He Do That? Lundy Bancroft talks a lot about how a lot of people mistakenly think that abusive men have a temper problem and need anger management, and he talks about how they will graduate anger management as abusers with much better control over their tempers because the two aren’t really strongly connected
I realized the other day that I don’t have any cis male friends.
I have one… we only talk every few weeks though
I have some and have had tons over the years, most of them are great. Doesn’t make this tweet less true though.
Me too, the men I have in my lodge are great and we have close bonds. They also do the work to be good, healthy friends that share a lot of respect and love.
I love uppity_negress_’s take on things. She’s one person I miss after leaving Threads.
