Why can't Steve just use him for sex and let him say degrading things about himselflike normal people?
*wounded noise* Everything about how thoroughly Bucky has normalized and internalized his abuse, and the worldview imparted thereof, is emotional catnip to me. And it's interesting; he knows it did hurt him and he doesn't want that kind of treatment anymore (like this, calling it humiliation, or when he steers Steve away from upsetting things in bed), but at the same time that's not enough to allow him to accept it was wrong.
