Mommy(/Daddy) Issues

“[...] You want a mommy you can slide your **** in and out of!”
"[...]A sex mommy who also keeps her boundaries--is that too much to ask?"
-Brojack Horseman

It was suggested by our human friend Joseph to have a meetup regarding Mommy and Daddy issues, and really I think it's long overdue.

Most people don't argue with the assertion that the way we are brought up can deeply affect us later in life. Our childhood--and really, the early relationships we form with our primary caregivers--can give us implicit memories which help shape our relationship tactics as adults. I'm confident many of you are familiar with the basics of avoidant/secure/anxious attachment styles at this point, but there is also a lot more nuance that can come with early childhood bonds and our brains' interpretations of them, especially since our own sensitivities and later experiences (which may have confirmed or broken early patterns) also play a role.

Let's meet and discuss the ways our parents have shaped the way we relate to others, both romantically and platonically.

Icebreaker this week: Is there a habit or personality quirk that drives you crazy coming from one of your parents but that you find yourself attracted to in other people?
