Can anyone verify that studies have shown that trauma can be inherited from male parents? I had been assuming epigenetic memory came from mothers, via chemical signaling during pregnancy. But epigenetic memory from fathers must be from actual changes to the DNA? Fascinating that a trigger like 'the smell of cherries' can be stored that precisely. It is very hard to believe, so relying on the scientific method here.
