All Comments on 'The Twelve Tables Ch. 27'

Oh, Ellie, how you pile on the expectations of the world upon your heroines. It is RL enough to be painful. Josh and Peri need to be there for each other, mutual support. If they are to be the new leaders, they ought to start with how and when to tell others to fuck off. And install a slide bolt high on their bedroom door as my parents had with six kids.

How is Josh going to lead the family when he has become a big cry baby

I realize that both Peri and Josh will need to grow into their new up and coming roles...Yes, Josh needs to grow up a little and Peri does need to assert herself in some areas...But they also need to be let alone to be who they already are as people! They were loved for who they were before the announcement why are they being pushed to be something different? Joseph and Antonia need to lay off of who they are in their home life. Don't try and fix what wasn't broken.

Well, the weekend didn't go as planned. I am proud of Josh for controlling his anger. I hope it doesn't explode with the demands of family when they were planning alone time. It's Peri who will suffer if that happens.

Peri's concern for Eden's future finally gives me hope that this trap of medieval misogynistic traditions and values could be reformed by the new generation. I got upset about connecting the description of the shit that is expected of women with the notion of sainthood, when at the same time they are sexually abused or groomed for sexual subservience, and I was really grossed out by the brothers who see no problem continuously having sex with women other than their wives. Their world sucks, and no wealth, power or family loyalty is worth being such bastards to women. And it really bothers me that no one in this world seems to have non-BDSM preferences, it's just too unrealistic, unless you acknowledge that they jus have been groomed for that since childhood, which means ultimately child abuse... I just cannot find legitimate justification for such treatment of women as a good thing, and since the writer is so talented, it seems legitimate to expect convincing arguments
