Some other notably unethical psych experiments I found interesting were: -Little Albert: they conditioned a baby to fear rabbits and other things that one wouldn't find scary. -Monster Study: they belittled the speech of non-stuttering children to the point where they made them stutter. -Milgram Obedience Study: they wanted to see how far people would take orders from an authority figure by making them electrically shock a person (person was only acting, but participants believed it was real), causing a lot psychological distress. -Stanford Prison Experiment: shit basically hit the fan and the researcher, Zimbardo, roleplayed a little too hard. There's probs tons more, but these are usually the textbook examples. If yous know any more that are interesting, feel free to reply with them.

[@Driver-qt9jh]

@@amousenamedjay6638 not fake but the result was invalidated. The whole concept was something like "if you give someone an authority, how quickly will they start to abuse it without realizing it". After the first two weeks or so, the head of the thing basically just plain told the guard to start intentionally acting more cruel. This combined with the fact the experiment was supposed to be over by now, alot of fights happened. After 3 days of it they dissolved the experiment perhaps realizing that locking 10 people in a box and being a dick to them might not be ethical. Im just kidding, they didn't realize that. The head of the project deemed it a successful proof and later the study was used in a court of law by a cadet who had joined his Sargent in robbing a bank. The cadet would be released based on these findings and a bitnof back and fourth, and later admitted he was fully aware he was just trying to rob a bank.

I think the gender one is really interesting. As a trans guy that’s both experienced and has spoke to many others that are trans and have experienced gender identity change, what the kid felt is much like what trans people feel, almost exactly like. The only difference is we never started off life as our preferred gender, but our brains are still wired to feel the same discomfort and depression as he did. It really makes me think of the concept of us trans people in the first place, maybe somehow, in a past life or as a spirit before a body, we too were our preferred gender, and somehow became placed in the wrong type of body.

Are you talking about his “gender neutrality” theory, or are you equating modern gender reassignment to Money’s abuse of a child? Because the first is right, you can’t force anyone to identify with a gender that they simply don’t see as themselves. We’re all pressured in one way or another to conform to gender roles and stereotypes of appearance, but most of us find identity and comfort in the gender we’re assigned by others. Choosing to identify as a woman because you choose to is radically different from forced feminization and being called “girl” by all of the adults around you despite every fiber of your being saying you’re a boy.

[@ThomAvella]

[@pythonkeeper148]

@@Thobeian it is not radically different; it’s the same except now we have patients with genital apotemnophilia looking to turn doctors into enablers, and they use John Money’s same radical belief system to justify their unhinged pathologies. Manhood and womanhood isn’t a choice; nobody chooses their DNA. Not to say that they are as sexually dimorphic as our culture wants to believe, and that they cannot share similar issues (or at times look more similar with people of certain androgynous phenotypes) but at the end of the argument, you either have two X chromosomes or a Y, and a body naturally running off of primarily testosterone or a cocktail of estrogens and other female hormones. This is the typical course of mammalian evolution, which adheres strongly to bilateral sexual evolution moreso than other animal groups. Any attempt to stray outside of that - short of sheer aestheticism - is a dangerous attempt to gaslight the narrative into enabling abuse and proliferation of identity disorders, and the only reason it is accepted today is to garner funding and to neuter a sector of the populace instead of researching and treating underlying causes.

He just proved that telling someone "no" to their identity all their life will def drive them fuckin nuts. I had paused the video before hearing both took their lives. Yea.

while what money did was horrendous, it did show one thing: no matter how you're raised or socialized, you are always your gender. And I don't mean sex, though that was the case here, what I mean is that if you try to raise a trans child as their gender assigned at birth, they will not identify that way. Gender is hard coded somewhere in the brain, and it is not defined by our genitals. The issue comes with our ability to express gender, whether through language or otherwise. It's really hard to explain *why* you are your gender because it's an innate feeling, it just *is.*

[@enbyfrogz6766]

thank you, im glad some people got this takeaway. as a trans person myself that story is often used as an argument to say that trans people aren't real and you're always the gender that your body aligns with, but in reality it shows what happens when you're forced to be the gender you aren't. in that story they forced a cisgender guy to be trans and he took his life after experiencing extreme gender dysphoria and being bullied for it, in so, so many others including mine, trans people feel dysphoric, depressed, and often kill themselves as a result. gender dysphoria can affect anyone, and it's serious.

Psychology is limited by the fact that to be regarded as a Science they need data from tens of thousands if not more. Which is cost prohibitive. So they 'invent' shortcuts and those are usually a freak show. As far as I can tell it is the first choice study of people with a speech impediment or some other embarrassing affliction. If we truly want to understand the human condition we need Science and that means primarily understanding the genome to understand our instincts, the subsequent effect of the suite of neurotransmitters and hormones that augment and reinforce those instincts. IOW there is a shared blueprint and therefore producing 'blueprinted' or completely-enabled reproductions of human life to be regarded as a successful alpha species. Plenty of variety there, but still sharing a birthright of courage, resilience, seeking capabilities and sociability. Fatal flaw: we invent Gods.

I'm a trans kid. I wasn't forced to transition, it was quite the opposite.

I got discouraged through the entire way. They outright said no bottom surgery until I'm 18. You are being lied to by con-men. That study only proved the validity of trans identity. John Money was disgusting and the modern idea of gender is not from him. That's like saying that the entire field of astronomy is based on a really messed up Galileo. Gender identity is biological. The feelings the victims experienced sound a lot like general gender dysphoria. My trans identity is the same issue, only instead of it being physical changes bringing it, it's that my brain was female from birth. Which is backed up by actual scans of the brain matter of trans people in the modern day. I can send you a few studies if you'd like.
