i hate to be the realist but even someone whos now stable and was in therapy and came out stronger etc. has a decent chance of being affected later on in life, although they may not know it when theyre in the parshah. i know this from an experienced RY who has a hakpada on his talmidim not going out with girls that had certain histories because of stories like these, where they ARE perfectly stable etc. and 20 years later it comes back to haunt them. for the record dont yll at me how insensitive i am cuz i have a hefty historyt myself so know exactly what it feels like to be stereotyped. but passions and emotions dont get rid of facts.
