I have been thinking about this ever since you told me, every single day, every single minute

I said something and you said “well what do you expect, my mom used to tell me that kissing on tv was special effects cause you aren’t allowed to kiss someone unless you’re in love”

Sarala, that has bothered me ever since

It seems very innocent at face value, but it isn’t

It’s not innocent

Not at all

It’s very damaging 

It damaged your future relationships with men

It changed how you see men, because your childhood you were just told it was “special effects”

Instead of telling you reality, and accompanying it with good advice…

Your mom decided to say some dumb bullshit “it’s just special effects”

I am speaking directly to your mom now:

Why would you tell your daughter that?

Was it religious?

You could’ve taught your daughter that men can be sweet and kind, if treated right

Not that men are “special effects”

Or that love is “special effects”

Your words and actions cause your daughters to feel sick, when they aren’t

They didn’t do anything 

Your daughters didn’t do anything, so why would you put your insecurities and fears into them?
