@RespectfulGentleman What's really cringe is the romanticizing of abuse and trauma. Talking about abuse and trauma is okay, of course, but people need to stop writing about it like it's cool or something like that. It's horrible, and it's not by making it sound less awful that things will change. It's exactly by romanticizing trauma and abuse that we make them more acceptable, and don't see the problem in people abusing others, or don't even recognize what is abuse and trauma and what isn't
