In most cases it was found that our self-esteem, our pocketbooks, our ambitions, our personal relationships (including sex) were hurt or threatened. So we were sore. We were "burned up."
On our grudge list we set opposite each name our injuries. Was it our self-esteem, our security, our ambitions, our personal, or sex relations, which had been interfered with?"
Page 64 Big Book

But that stuff about femininity sounds dangerous, like it's something your sponsor made up. My advice is, stick to the Big Book.
Thanks ever so much for your reply, I'm sat with the horrible feelings I have about this and no-one local to talk with about it.

I can definitely say that it's not something my sponsor has made up. The document she has sent me is written in that very particular AA archaic (biblical) language so I'm gonna bet that it is from AA. I much prefer the Basic Text and modern language of NA which is what I read on a daily basis.
