    Well it’s usually done to teen children’s teen partners ime, but ok fine I hope your adult childs adult partner asks for copies for later, the age of the person making the creepy comment is really not important but I think it’s worse if they’re adults so I’ll roll with it lol. Maybe she doesn’t know her husband’s proclivities, I’m not sure most pedos advertise it willingly, but he’s “tooootally not gonna spank it he just wants it for archival purposes” lol.

    If your wife says “not tonight I have a headache” do you ask for evidence of hypertension? If she says something you did made her upset do you ask for evidence in a peer reviewed paper on why X could possibly be psychologically damaging? I’d bet the answer is “no I take her word at face value because it is her feelings after all.” But fuck the feelings of others? Would I have to begrudgingly have sex with you for you to take my word about my feelings?

      My wife and I have her and my naked baby photos. We didn’t have to ask for copies, they just gave us the family photo albums. And when parents die, that often happens automatically. It kind of feels like you don’t know how any of this works.

      And now you’re comparing showing someone a naked baby to marital rape? Really?

        I didn’t say “baby photos” I said “if your wife tells you she is upset about something do you ask her for peer reviewed studies on how that something could possibly psychologically effect someone negatively, or do you just believe she is feeling how she says she is feeling?”

          What on Earth does that have to do with parents causing their adult child psychological trauma by showing their partner naked baby pictures?

          Did you think I meant showing it to their partner if they were adamant that you did not do so and it was going to hurt them? Did I ever even imply such a thing?

            You seem to think people being upset about things is inconsequential without it going through a peer review process, I’m just trying to gauge where your limit is for that.

                  And yet it’s true. Being upset and trauma are two very different things as I know from personal experience of both. For example, you’re upset with me right now. You’re not traumatized by my post, I’m sure.
