yeah, I can see why Leonard is so messed up; NOT that I think its an excuse at all for his behavior towards Penny.
Even though Sheldon grew up with an overly religious home, his mom and (I assume) his meemaw taught him to be a gentleman (of course the new Sheldon is an ass ). He may not get it right all the time, but he wasn't deliberately trying manipulating anyone...back then.
The show throwing in the alcoholic dad and fighting wasn't necessary. I think it's sad that he has such a reaction to the arguing and fighting. Its not funny.
I guess it was a way to get sympathy for him or to excuse the misogynistic comments he is making now.
