If there’s anything I’m learning in school studying Human Sexuality and Forensic Psychology, it’s the cyclicality of trauma and pain.
I’ve also lost my ability to belive in such a thing as evil (please do not preach to me), but human nature, what it is capable of in situations where there is no consequence, has become something very scary to me.
My Sex Crimes and Forensic Behavioural Analysis professor had me read Serial Murderers and their Victims among many others, and my Sociology of Religion professor suggested Ordinary Men. I think everyone would benefit from reading these.
It’s been years since I started with Sexuality and Psychology, and 10 months since committing myself to Forensic Psych in such depth, I’ve never been so perturbed. I have to devote my life to this. I can’t with clear conscience do anything else, especially considering my experiences with classmates showing nothing but apathy and a lack of understanding.
