I thought my parents were cold.

It’s edumacated, not edumacted. Get it rite!

Censorship aside, some cultures believe that images of vulvas frighten away evil spirits because they’re symbolic of life. So who knows? That might work.

When I was 11, I was annoying my mom a lot so naturally, she lunged at me with a butchers knife.

When I was 16, she beat me in the head with her fists.

I’m 55 now and she died when I was 30. You know what’s weird? I wish she had stabbed me when I was 11. She would have had to explain that. Then again, if someone had seen her threaten me for once. My half-sister saw her beat me in the head with her fists and Mama suffered no consequences so she probably wouldn’t have then either.
