Yes true.

It is also apart of the abuse cycle. My stepdad was seriously abused by a staff member in a boys detention centre when he was a kid and while I would like to have WORLD DOMINATION and the ultimate control over people > I choose not to in that I know it is not the right thing to do.

So even though there are reasons for everything > We all have a choice.

What's so sad about society today is that I can look at a woman's behavior and determine she has PTSD without being told... and knowing why she has it based on statistics.

I see it all the time.

Nice one anbuend.

There's moments when you definitely kick ass...

...even when you're kicking mine.

My shrink, a balding git, told me that I couldn't have AS because I was a girl. Three years on, a professor told me that was a load of crap and diagnosed me!
