No, that's a garbage take. Trauma doesn't make anyone better. People who learn to overcome their trauma become better by virtue of the challenge they overcame, but that's like saying becoming a paraplegic made Steven Hawking smarter.
Some people thrive despite their disabilities and hardships. That doesn't mean the disabilities and hardships are what made then thrive in the first place.
Yeah, I've always thought if we could break the cycle for a whole generation in one clean cut, it would only take on generation to enlighten the whole world.
Tbh I don't know about read because I~~ can't read~~ don't study psychology, but I heard it first from Daniel Meckler, an ex-psychiatrist. He explains it well and it comes up in every video, so in his eyes it's the most important thing to grasp about human psychology for your own sake or for the sake of practicing it.
You could scroll through his page and see what topic seems most interesting because you're almost bound to hear it in one of them
You aren't required to participate in gay pride celebrations this month. You can instead go watch the He-Man movie and enjoy a fun action movie about totally straight men.
Dedicated to Flora (goddess of flowers/spring); featured theatrical performances, mimes, nudity, and explicit association with sex workers and fertility rituals.

Because we were all traumatised as children. Psychiatrists talk about this

Well said. Actually reminds me of what Protesilaos said in this YouTube video on Ares, which I think about a lot

They also say you can't not be traumatized. Trauma is how we learn to do and be better.

I just want to get drunk and have fun in the bouncy castle 😭
No, wait a second. Forget getting drunk, I might throw up in there. Just give me the bouncy castle!

If it is, I have no clue about it. I just really think that bouncy castles should be a part of a good company event.

Pride isn't about gays being proud to be gay.
They are proud to be brave enough to come out of the closet. Especially in a world where they could be beaten to death for it.
Straights never needed to do that. So there is no need to be proud.

I think it's more like "unashamed." A refusal to hide this essential aspect of oneself.

Just fyi, the answer is June.

From July to June, unfortunately.

I'm pretty sure it's December. That's when I feel the straightest.

It's whatever month you want it to be.
Seriously, it's that easy.
(I am against all of the months, personally, they're a constant annoyance in addition the holiday tripe)

You don't really believe "South Dakota Department of Propaganda" is an official state-run account, do you? Well just in case you do, it's not.
