Are the negative psychological effects all to do with the shame of how society views them, and the constant requirement not to act on urges which have no acceptable outlet? Or does the condition itself inherently cause negative effects?
Tangentially to that issue is the treatment given to incest/abuse when Tom Green's character in Freddy Got Fingered is upset over NOT being sexually abused by dear old dad.
It didn't play well as a comedic theme (at least by Tom Green in an execrable movie) and I'm wondering about any other way of making it palatable . . .
I see an unfortunate word choice has been made, I'm disinclined to fix it at this point.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
