Re: have you head of dr. tara j, palmatier?

  • I think that her thinking is tainted with a lot of outdated notions, gross generalizations and sexist ideas.

     

    I find her writing kind of vile. 

  • I do agree with most of what she says in the princess article, to me that's just about mutual respect. In the first article, I agree with the hostile dependancy thing. This isn't an inevitable dynamic but definitely one that would foster in a relationship where communication was lacking and husband and wife weren't on the same page re: the issue of working vs staying home.
  • She is crazy. She gives a blanket diagnosis to women. Apparently she attributes her drive to having a mentally ill mother. The ironic part is Borderline Personality Disorder tends to be prompted by an unstable relationship with a materal caregiver. So if she is a real person and it's not somebody's weird game then she's probably Borderline judging by her writing which makes her self loathing and therefore probably not someone you want to listen to.

    She isn't license and nobody had met her in person.
