(8,747 posts)32. If a boy was abused by his mother....
Verbally, emotionally, physically, sexually, especially during adolescence, do you really find it hard to understand WHY that boy grown into a man might have animosity toward women?
It's no coincidence many serial killers were abused in some fashion by their mothers.
As your second question, I remember a plaque I saw in a superior's office 40 years ago:
"There are two types of women, Mother and Others."
In other words the old Madonna / Whore syndrome. If the female belongings to said male, she is obviously a Madonna. If she is not controllable by him, AKA his property, then she's either a whore, or potential whore. Or else she's just "Too fucking independent"
