idk if “gentle” is the right term, I was thinking “温柔” and its the best translation I guess

Feel free to share anecdotes, or scientific studies if you have any.

So my mom was kinda like half and half… I feel like I absored half of the “gentleness” and half of the rage…

Dad was kinda just neutral… like stoic as hell except a few times of getting mad…

    This seems like the Nature vs Nurture question in what influences a person’s personality during the earlier development years and I’m pretty sure the answer to it is currently unknown. I also don’t think there is really any ethical way to test it.

      It’s not unknown, it’s just that it’s not one or the other. We solved nature vs nurture a long time ago, you just change the vs to and. Why would only one factor matter when both are ever-present?
