Anecdotal, but nonetheless...

When I was in my twenties, I went to work for a small local business. I had no idea of the “behind the scene” drama when I took the job. The owner was late forties, an engineer, and father of 3...his youngest was a 14 year old girl.

After a while, I learned the owner had recently divorced and taken up with a slim, 18 year old, red-headed male hair stylist...a real fem flamer. The office manager was always up on the family drama, and told me the owner's teenage son wouldn't talk to his dad. (He threatened to beat the crap outta Dad's "new wife".) The oldest daughter was married but had a strained relationship with her dad.

I was doing some mindless electronic assembly in the warehouse for a project one day, and the 14 year old daughter volunteered to help me. She was a sweet kid. We talked...or more like, I let her talk...I could tell she needed someone to listen to her. She started out flirting. Basically offering herself. After I made it clear it wasn't going to happen, I found out she knew a great amount of graphic detail about her father and his gay parties. And in her rambling, she was clearly confused about her own sexuality, suggesting she may try lesbianism for a while. I knew she had years of trouble ahead of her. I was horrified by the selfishness of the owner, and the damage his decisions were having on his daughter.

I started looking for another job, and eventually started my own company.

“I was horrified by the selfishness of the owner, and the damage his decisions were having on his daughter.”

According to the narcissic liberal worldview, it’s all about him and his being “true to himself” regardless of the damage it causes to others.
