Expect to find curse words, nudity, (occasionally explicit) talk of sex, and angry ranting, but NEVER slurs or sexually violent language. I use TW when I am aware of the need and on request.

I really admire your ethics here. I don't like the idea of talking about someone behind their back but sometimes I just feel the need to vent and I don't know what I would do, emotionally, if I couldn't.

And unfortunately I feel like in my family there is a culture of talking behind each other's backs, probably like with a lot of families, so I guess I've been brought up with that ever since my parents split. Not that upbringing is an excuse.

My Grandma always says, "Never say anything behind someone's back that you wouldn't say to their face" and I guess I try to stick with that, although I know it's far from perfect and doesn't really work (since what you can imagine yourself saying to someone's face when you're angry is very unlikely to be what you would actually say).

I feel like this is one area where I will probably never become a better person, sadly - at least not where my family are concerned - but it's good to be aware of the possibility.
