Just got done reading this, why was dr money so comically evil? Like wtf was wrong with him? He's like a cartoon villian. Anyway the book was pretty good, would recommend.
weird how the only treatments for non conformity in males are eithermutilating their penises and chemically breaking their balls and dressing them up like girls and telling them to perform a female voice and have female hobbiesOR(zucker style)telling them to abandon any feminine mannerisms, voice, interests etc. and larp as masculine straight men as best they cannobody ever tells feminine men it's ok to just be themselvesI wonder why???I wonder who WHO would be against feminine men just being themselves.
>>41013744Women? Jews?
>>41013744Jewish women??
>>41013812perhaps, both...perhaps a CAREFUL evaluation of the motives and interests of jewish women would lead to an illuminating effect on many myriad cultural practices, not just this one
>>41013731Because psychology is a shit field for shit people.
>>41013731He also invented infant genital mutilation surgeries for intersex babies. His incorrect psychological theory is that gender identity is mutable with enough gaslighting and genital surgery, basically conversion therapy. Ironically it also proves that if you don’t let trannies mutilate themselves they will david reimer themselves.
>>41014612I am 100% sure they were mutilating intersex babies since ever. People have hated any sort of physical or behavioral non conforming since always.
bump
I never trust psychology or psychiatry they only do this kind of inhumane stuff
>>41014624No, before the 60s they’d basically just kill em
>>41014612>everything i dont like is heckin mutilation and everything i like is angelic correctionstfu
>>41013731like you've never lied to cover up a mistake
>>41013744People would seek out medical help transitioning decades before it was really A Thing>>41014624I'm not sure when that started but new surgical techniques (by 60s standards) have made more things possible.We even have single stage surgeries to correct fairly complex cases to male now.>>41014612He certainly invented the psychological justification that survived until the late 90s.
Bump...
>>41013731i think he had that mad scientist urge to eschew any sense of decency in the name of "discovery". david reimer's case, even if tragic did revolutionize conception of gender; it's a shame that it's steeped in so much cruelty though, even if such cruelty reflects the situation of so many closeted and repressing trans people today.
>>41019742I wish the case weren't so misunderstood.I've had a real life righty bring him up like he was the father of trans ideology, but as far as I can tell he didn't like us very much.You were supposed to take the gender you were given, not exercise free will. Even if exercising free will meant becoming the sex you were born as.
>>41013889This. A solid 90% of psychology is a sham meant to hurt minorities and pathologize normal human behavior and variation. Autism and adhd are not real.
