I always wonder if I’d be the same person I am today if my parents hadn’t exposed me to sex from a young age by openly fucking and doing BDSM around the house, if I hadn’t had unsupervised internet access, and if I didn’t have friends with just as dysfunctional families feeding off each other’s bad habits. I feel like I grew up too fast and didn’t really mature at the same time, if that makes sense.

    Very insightful take, violet! From the information you’ve shared here, I agree and I hope at some point in your life you seek therapeutic help because your upbringing was messed up in very particular ways.

    And yes, we all are, partly. We’re not pebbles in a river just going with the current though, we have introspection and free will, meaning we have the possibility to choose a different path. 🙏
