Beautiful and brave, just not women. Men. And that's okay. Also, arguments are valid in which the conclusion follows from the premises. I don't know what valid humans are though.

My view on validation is that those seeking it need to find not validation but an understanding of their need for it.

I don't even know what it means. Is it, like, saying someone is right? Or that they're okay? Is it just saying 'yes' to someone?

Validation in the TRA social media context means you promise never to disagree with that person about anything and to always make them feel good with your words and actions. Basically what an abusive person demands from their partner.
