My mom was also the one who hit me (until I got to be bigger and stronger than her, and that stopped it). My dad was mostly absentee so I don't hold to the "father figure" thing.
If I have any stigma left from my religious upbringing it's this. I didn't wait till I was married to have sex, and then I had a couple guys I played with. I'm not intellectually ashamed, but my family has made me feel really shitty about it. And to be frank it's one of the reasons I don't associate with my family much.
