I was born and raised in small city in India, my family doesn't have to much money but do have rich family history. I have heard stories that my ancestors were worior. Family line with prestige and prosperity but being that doesn't mean that these people are thoughtful and generous.

I have witnessed domestic abuse in almost every household related to us. Men who pretend like they are the MEN of family and are proud to be themselves actually abuses their family behind close doors. Look down on women in their own home and pseudo praise successful women. Hypocrite!! And this passed on to next generation and then again to next one. This is so much normalized in place where I grew that I hated that place most of life.

Thes people don't want wife or daughter they want well educated maid who will gladly take their abuse as trophy.

That's how I have seen my mother. That woman was epitome of that toxic idealism. She is educated well mannered a good woman. But what did life gave her parents who married her to someone without knowing anything about the narcissistic behavior a man who always abuse her physically and verbally. She cut ties with almost everyone cause he always end every topic with so you sleep with that man. Likes woman doesn't know anything than sleeping around. He have even said that pointing to me lot of times whose dirty blood is running through this girl. Those words gave me really deep scars. I can not forgive or forget that.

"...your just another whore " I heard those words and now I can't think straight my fears and anxiety left and anger overpowered. And I slapped him.

How dare he talk to me like that does he know me 'no'. Even if he he knew me is it right thing ' no'.

"Don't you dare to say anything like that to me. like that guy say you don't have right live bloody terrorists. Basterd!!" I fired to him.

His eyes had unrecognizable emotions for sometime. There was silence I was staring in to his eyes.

Then he grabbed my hand and twisted it behind my back. Said near my ear "don't call me that ".

He suddenly took me to my seat said "you'll stay here" and started walking away then again turn around and said "don't do anything stupid ".

I just sat there no thoughts just empty.
