Role added by mistquill on September 13, 2022
For a long time in fiction, a child born out of wedlock was often expected to have a treacherous or villainous nature due solely to the fact of his illegitimate birth, which of course is how the term "bastard" came to mean someone who was...well, a bastard. In modern times, however, with the rise of more liberal and humane attitudes — as well as the rapid increase in unwed motherhood as a societal phenomenon — it has become less acceptable to assume that a person will have a tendency toward evil behavior just because Dad never gave Mom a ring or because Mom or Dad had the kid when one of the two already gave a ring to another person.
