If a girl has "daddy issues" is she destined to be a whore?

[jojofun32]

It seems like it usually end up that way =/ Any thoughts?

[Cool-Relax]

I think it depends on the individual and what her issues with her father are. Both of my best friends have "daddy issues". One constantly looks for long-term relationships with guys who won't abandon her as a result. The other pretty much avoids guys because she has a hard time trusting people. Neither one of them is a whore.

It's like the majority of girls who do turn out that way have daddy issues, but not all girls who have daddy issues turn out that way.

I wouldn't say her destiny is to be a whore. but she might sleep around a bit until she finds the right person who'll help her deal with whatever issues she's going through

[gravygirl]

Not always. I know for some of my friends it's worked the other way. The trouble they've had with their father has made it difficult for them to be intimate with a man.

Family issues has no correlation to someone's moral. If she doesn't want to be a whore, she won't be as long as she lives by that guideline. Follow your own respect and set your own path. Granted, if her parents were divorced and known players- that's what she was raised to know (is unstable relationships) and she will have difficulty breaking that belief, but it's not impossible.

"Family issues has no correlation to someone's moral." That's one of the silliest sentences I've ever read. Do you think we are born with morality?

[ArtistBboy]

Morality is a choice, it's not a hereditary trait.. Therefore, if she chose not to pay attention to her families behavior (and instead choose her own path in life), she has a choice of her moral. It's a part of personality, so please.. Stop your sarcastic comments.

[Cool-Relax]

Half of personality is genetic, the other half is learned from your environment. If you're taught that something is acceptable or the norm, you won't know any different. It's really difficult for a person to go against the way they were raised. Sure, people do it, but to say that she could choose to ignore her family's behavior is oversimplifying it. You can't ignore your childhood. Even when you choose your own path, it's still shaped by your past.

[ArtistBboy]

Agreed CR, but at that note, it is possible. I didn't say it was easy, I know because I've done it.

[myths]

Interestingly, if you are referring to sexual abuse (especially in youth), then yes there is a positive correlation with sexual abuse and lifelong promiscuity. However, this phenomenon is not limited to father/daughter abuse sexual abuse in any capacity. There are studies available on the net if you with to read up on it in more detail.

Define "daddy issues?"

Define whore?

As I understand the definitions, girls with "daddy issues" are attracted to older men and whores are prostitutes. I don't see any connection between the two at all.

[l-hedoniste]

There are lots of whores who don't have daddy issues, and girls with daddy issues who aren't whores.

Bring them up, though, and you blow up the myth, making you a party-pooper.

the problem with the question is that destiny is hard to believe in. I don't feel like I'm destined to do anything. I make my own decisions regardless of what happens. ur fate is not decided for u. but as far as the actual question is concerned. um. no I don't think it'd make you a whore. only if ur actions are whorish. then ur a whore. but no having daddy issues. doesn't make you a whore

[ArtistBboy]

EXACTLY! I completely agree +1

[iwbym]

Ty artist. ur cool in my book

[here4you]

See artistBBoy I'm not the only one

[gotc147]

Most likely, at least from what I've seen. They like (considerably) older men, gang/criminal types, yeah it's not a good future.

[blah52]

Well, all the slutty girls I've got to know have had them. So I would say that having daddy issues is not indicative of being a whore, but its the other way around. Most whores have daddy issues.

[Anonymous]

usually, if she doesn't recognize her issues and try to work on them.

The individual has a choice...

[Anonymous]

Daddy issues, absent farther not role model, more likely to engage in sex at a younger age, problems with a relationship can lead to a predisposition in later life, seeking a role model, etc but their are a lot of other factors so the relationship may affect but not ultimatly determine promiscuity in later life.

I do hve a question that's related to her question. I hve had vry bad father issues including him raping me wen I was 5-11 years old, and after that I started hveing (wanted not unwanted) sex... Does my father hve anything ti do with me hveing sex at an earlier age, I started wen I was 14, and now hve a child, and another on the way... Any suggestions as to my question?

[gravygirl]

Probably. I'd imagine it's difficult for you to separate normal sexuality from what happened to you as a child. Have you been in therapy or anything like that? I think it'd be really useful for you.
