Get the Repressitol mug.To avoide doing or even thinking about something you want to do very much. The main reason for not doing it is fear of guilt or losing the respect from a parent or peer. In fact, you make yourself believe that you really don't even want to do the thing you are repressing.
Shasha: "Cindy, do you want to go clubbing and get wasted? Maybe we will pick up some guys."

Shasha (to self) : "She has repression bad"

Get the Emotional repression mug.Emotional repression is a way females try and come off as tough, badass, and charming without coming off as weak. Females who think that kindness is weakness tend to think that emotional repression is the way to go.
