8 years ago she was 4 right? That seems quite young.
I liked wearing my moms heels and even put on makeup around that age.
I can see the current climate causing parents to think that means more than it does.
My mom was great, though. She always let me make decisions like these on my own and didn't encourage me one way or the other to be something I'm not.
Similarly my parents acquiesced to my begging for a Barbie doll. My dad was worried it would be a gateway to his son pursuing unmanly things. But even at that early age what I was fascinated by wasn't the fashion or playhouses but the idea of having dominance over a femme entity.
I still resent myself for it because I haven't grown past that behavior, in video games I choose femme avatars to literally control them. Back when I still made excuses to permit myself to date, I would abuse my girlfriend by flipping the dresser around to face the wall while she was showering so I could control her access to clothing
I guess my point is that there's a lot children can explore at an early age.
What do you mean "excuses to permit yourself to date?" Have you just... not have had therapy for your abusive nature? How do you deal with your "idea of having dominance" in public/at work? You wanted to be dominant over girls when you were, like, 4?
In short, what?
