Not sure what you might think of Michael Tsarion and his work. But, I’ve been reading through the introduction to his book Dragon Mother along with some other articles he’s got listed on the site dedicated to the work. So far, his thesis is making enough sense to me that I’m going to go ahead and read the full text. In my opinion, it’s information like this that could be helpful when studied, shared, and discussed as a part of the process of regaining our emotional maturity as a species for both sexes. Perhaps you and other anons might find some useful information to be gleaned. Enjoy!
Here’s a link to the website and an excerpt from the introduction:

In this book I again take up the all-important question of ancestral trauma in order to show how ancient cataclysm set off a chain of events that undergirds and conditions the mother-child relationship. The nature of this relationship is of course vitally important. Every child grows to adulthood bearing the emotional complexion determined by his or her mother in the days and weeks after conception. Since she, like all humans, bears within herself on an unconscious level the disturbance of bygone days, it goes without saying that her child will likewise inherit the traumatic condition. What is more, if she – during her own pre- and post-infancy periods or in utero – suffered emotional or physical abuse at the hands of her parents, it is unlikely that her offspring will grow up to be psychically whole beings. I believe that this is the situation that persists throughout the modern world. This problem beset our forebears who survived cataclysms but it persists and worsens as a problem today.
From what I’ve said it follows that healing can’t occur unless women become aware of this problem enough to do something constructive about it. This inevitably means an upgrading of self-knowledge and psychological insight. I speak of women’s responsibility because the average child doesn’t come under the direct psychological influence of their father until much later in its mental and emotional development, after the damage has already been done. Moreover, the father is himself a male whose consciousness is the outcome of his prenatal and postnatal relationship with his own mother. Therefore unless his mother was a composed self-loving person, and unless he is himself an exceptionally grounded insightful man, he will not be in a position to significantly reconfigure the fundamental structure of his child’s consciousness. And let us not doubt that this is his duty as a father. This is not to say that he has no effect at all. Of course he has. But the seeds of his child’s temperament were laid and undernourished long before his influence comes to bear. The child’s psychic orientation, character and perception of self and world are already formed. Exposure to and modification by a father’s interpretation of the external world can certainly help acculturate to a degree, but cannot hope to radically adjust a consciousness misshapen in natal and prenatal years by a mother with a malignant relationship toward herself and the world, a situation made worse by the effects of ancestral trauma operating at the root of her psyche.
