Psychologist Yevstigneyev identified the reasons for mothers' excessive attachment to their sons. Russian women have become afraid of giving birth to boys due to other mothers' unhealthy sexual obsession with their own sons.
Consensus
- The number of Russian women seeking psychological help due to fear of giving birth to sons has tripled in the last year.
- Internet trends such as 'сыночка-корзиночика' and 'моя бирочка' are contributing to this anxiety.
- These trends feature excessive physical closeness between mothers and their grown-up sons, including hugging, touching, and intimate gestures.
- The highest demand for psychological services related to this issue is observed in Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Novosibirsk, and Yekaterinburg.
- Psychologists warn that such maternal behavior may hinder sons' ability to form healthy relationships with women later in life.
Points of divergence
- The psychological cause of overattachment is described as a lack of personal identity and pathological fusion, where the child becomes the sole source of oxytocin, dopamine, and meaning. — m24
- The fear stems from concerns about 'sexual obsession' by mothers toward their sons and potential emotional incest, with specific claims that some videos show mothers kissing adult sons on the lips or having accidental contact with intimate areas. — tg_bazabazon
