I am concerned about how any child is going to grow up having had the most powerful women in his life exert painful control over him (examples: "amazing the amount of angst", "consequences which to him are rather severe") because he was curious about women's bodies. I sincerely worry about what such a child's opinion of women WILL BE when he IS sexually sophisticated, after having his normal impulses basically crushed by his mother - the most powerful woman in his life - and told that he is wrong and bad.
