Where is the line between healthy self expression and rude self expression. But then again who cares about being rude or not rude to jerks.
---"Pathologization of Agency: Normal human expansion, vitality, and assertiveness are conditioned to be viewed as "symptoms" or social infractions. Joy and movement are preemptively suppressed to prevent triggering the aggressor's punitive response."
I think there is something double going on here where some generations were taught that females should not be assertive and then there is that on top of narcissist control. It's a double suppression of personality and needs.
