I had absolutely no idea what occult quacks chiropractors were for an embarrassingly long time. I thought it was just another medical specialization, like dermatology. No one told me otherwise and it was only a few years ago that I learned that orthopedic specialists and neurologists practiced something very different than the quackery that still legally allowed to blend in as if it were an actual medical specialization, to make suckers like me fail to notice the difference at a glance. I'm glad I never went to see one before I knew better. :the-more-you-know:
Women are often shamed (or worse) for ever bringing it up, but men can also be ideologically robbed of "manhood" by others if they ever bring it up on top of that.
One time I was in group therapy and the new guy was a cop. Picture a blond refrigerator squashed to 5'9" in a car crusher. Broke down and wept revealing he had been assaulted. I broke protocol and ran and hugged a weeping hulk. Took a lot of courage to break through cop level machismo, I admired that.
