Abusive Quote by The Morrigan
““He's rude, controlling, abusive, misogynistic, disparaging and dismissive… In all seriousness though, what a hideous lust object to mythologize. It'll be teaching all sorts of young girls that it's ROMANTIC to accept any sort of appalling treatment from some brooding loser who treats you like dirt. (describing the romantic lead in "Twilight")””
