This Man Was Evil
And Unfortunately Extremely Influential
John Money.
A great deal has been written and said about this man, and rightfully so, but maybe it will never be enough.
Is it a coincidence that his last name (or love of it) is that which some claim is the root of all evil?
Is it a coincidence that money is what fuels the industrialized cult behind this lie?
Maybe not.
Not long ago, I realized I had never heard his voice even though I had read his work and copious analysis of his poisonous claims, as well as viewed images of his plain visage.
I realized that when I stumbled upon this clip on social media because it was the first time I heard him speak.
It’s time to revisit Mr. Money and break down the irrational and contradictory statements he makes here so we can understand why his vile legacy, particularly with regard to the Reimers, still shapes society, especially since there is no such thing as “gender identity” or “transsexual” or “transgender.”
And that is because, to put it technically, this man was not only evil but full of shit.
Sex and Money
This clip is from a 1991 documentary entitled Sex and Money, which aired on Dutch television.
The filmmakers profiled Money and his teachings as well as Dr. Louis Gooren, a Dutch endocrinologist who had a significant impact on plying children with puberty blockers and hormones through the Dutch protocol.
This video lays bare the inherent lie at the very core of this scam in only 60 seconds.
First, before we go into the substance of the nonsense, it is imperative to understand how men like Money frame this issue from the get-go.
He claims what people don’t really understand, at least were having great difficulty understanding it, is that it’s not a free choice, it’s not a moral issue.
Got that?
If you don’t accept his claims that a child can be born in the wrong body and should be mutilated and sterilized into the right one, that means you simply do not understand. That means those who oppose him lack intelligence and probably aren’t educated enough to comprehend his highfalutin and highly advanced propositions.
You don’t want everyone to think you’re dumb, do you? So, be smart and go along with it, no matter how asinine all this obviously is.
You’d be surprised how much of academia functions on this very principle—obvious nonsense that nobody calls out for fear of accusations of not being clever enough to understand it, when there is nothing to understand because it’s total dreck.
Furthermore, he’d like to take morality out of the question because he claims it’s not a moral issue. So, if someone said that it’s morally wrong to abuse or mutilate children, then there’s again been a complete misunderstanding of what’s going on because this has nothing to do with what’s right or wrong. Only a low-brow, provincial idiot would even suggest that.
See how this has been framed by this very smart doctor with a Harvard PhD entitled Hermaphroditism: An Inquiry Into the Nature of a Human Paradox?
“True hermaphrodites” possessing both sets of functional gonads and genitalia have never been observed in Homo sapiens, so Money’s 1952 doctoral thesis as his very first “scientific” work is suspect, and DSDs are irrelevant though a convenient red herring. Notably, he obtained his PhD in psychology the year before George “Christine” Jorgensen caused a media circus when he returned to the United States from Denmark in 1953 after his surgeries.
The unbelievably rare cases of ovotesticular syndrome (previously called “true hermaphroditism”) are congenital disorders with only 500 reported cases by 2019, and it has nothing to do with physically healthy males claiming to be female.
That, of course, did not stop the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the United States Public Health Service from supporting Money’s “psychohormonal research” for 38 years with millions of dollars in grants at the taxpayers’ expense.
The Reimers
Money’s abuse of the Reimers is by now widely known, and it should be because it functions as the foundation of much of the self-contradictory modern “transgender” agenda, even if activists are embarrassed by it or try to deny it.
Some deny it because it’s shameful to admit that child abuse by one of the most famous proponents of this fraud was used as scientific proof of its validity. Remember, this has nothing to do with morality though.
Born in 1965 in Canada, David (born Bruce Peter) Reimer underwent a botched circumcision as an infant which essentially destroyed his penis. After seeing Money on a Canadian television program, his parents took their child to Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore because Money had researched “intersex” patients there.
What would a PhD in psychology know about disorders of sexual development, which would be the focus of biologists or medical doctors, and what does that have to do with botched circumcisions? David didn’t have a genetic disorder or DSD. He was genetically healthy but physically harmed by electrocauterization.
No matter. Money recommended that David have his testicles removed, penis mutilated into an imitation of a vagina, and be “raised as” a girl, and since he was an expert then there was no way he could wrong…right?
David underwent surgeries when he was 22 months old, and his parents told him he was a girl named Brenda.
He continued regular visits with Money, which his twin brother Brian also attended, where Money would direct them to enact sexual positions as healthy “childhood sexual exploration.”
He also photographed them on at least one occasion:
Money theorized that reproductive behavior formed the foundation of gender, and that “play at thrusting movements and copulation” was a key aspect of gender development in all primates.
Starting at age six, according to Brian, the twins were forced to act out sexual acts, with David playing the female role—Money made David get down on all fours, and Brian was forced to “come up behind [him] and place his crotch against [his] buttocks.”
Money also forced David, in another sexual position, to have his “legs spread” with Brian on top. On “at least one occasion” Money took a photograph of the two children doing these activities.
When either child resisted these activities, Money would get angry. Both David and Brian recall that Money was mild-mannered around their parents, but ill-tempered when alone with them. When they resisted inspecting each other’s genitals, Money got very aggressive. David says, “He told me to take my clothes off, and I just did not do it. I just stood there. And he screamed, ‘Now!’ Louder than that. I thought he was going to give me a whupping. So I took my clothes off and stood there shaking.”
The twin brother was considered the ideal control because they had the same genetics and were raised in the same household.
Remember, this has nothing to do with morality, and if you think it does then you’re unintelligent and unenlightened.
Money considered “gender identity” largely a function of sexual positions during intercourse, so if a male received penetration during intercourse he was enacting a “female gender identity” in his highly learned view. That’s what he was trying to teach David.
Except this is just child abuse, and it started at age six. This is normalization of pedophilia, which has always been a goal of this agenda.
Was this after the critical period when “gender identity” could be fixed or not? Was this a voluntary choice or not? Whose choice?
After never being comfortable “living as” a girl, and even after taking estrogen, David’s parents told him the truth when he was 14. He stopped being Brenda and tried to be David as he started testosterone and eventually got married. He and his brother were both deeply scarred by this abuse.
No matter. Money presented this case at Johns Hopkins, Harvard, and various other institutions and organizations as incontrovertible proof for his assertion that “gender identity” is separate from sex as well as applicable to children, not just the “transsexual adults” most people were somewhat familiar with. Called the “John/Joan” case, it had enormous implications on what Money called “gender identity disorder,” which was put into the DSM-III in 1980 with significant input from him.
Except he was talking nonsense and presenting contradictory ideas from the very beginning, as evidenced in the clip above. David began speaking out publicly about his life in the 1990s since he saw Money had used it as a success story to promote this agenda, when it was anything but successful. In fact, this failure proved Money’s idiotic claims were false.
Brian died of an intentional drug overdose in 2002. David shot and killed himself in 2004.
Money died of Parkinson’s disease in 2006 at age 84.
This Always Involves Free Choice
Individuals like Money are the ones who have the free choice to recommend surgeries or hormones. He was not a licensed medical doctor, but as a psychologist he could refer patients for such treatment.
He behaves as if because patients claim to be born in the wrong body then that means they have no other choice in life but to undergo mutilation to imitate the opposite sex because that means doctors also have no other option, and that’s just how it is.
Wrong.
Doctors once had the choice to perform transorbital lobotomies. Then they stopped.
Doctors once had the choice to hand out OxyContin to basically anyone and everyone. Then they stopped.
Doctors have the choice not to affirm the delusions of someone who claims his “gender” is different from his sex because there is no such thing.
The one person who had no free choice was David Reimer. He wasn’t asked whether he wanted to live a lie, and even if he had said yes, none of this should have happened anyway or at any age. That applies to everyone, not just him.
Just Like Your Native Language
Here’s where the real nonsense starts.
It’s not there the day you’re born, and when you get it, it gets glued in, and you cannot pull it apart. And the same is true with your gender identity and role.
Well, now, hold on here.
I’ve been told many times that gender identity is an innate sense of gender (what’s gender again?), but here Money the Molester claims that one is not born with it. That means it cannot be innate.
If something is innate then it cannot be a free choice because one is born with it and cannot do anything about it. That is the contradiction which is at the nucleus of this lie.
Men like Money, and his successors today, want to argue that one can be “genderfluid” so identity is social/environmental while simultaneously claiming that very same identity is also fixed/innate whenever that is more convenient. Even the people who claim to oppose him cannot deny that his work had such a significant impact that everyone who claims to be “trans” today relies on his legacy because he had such an important role in making this possible.
It doesn’t matter if they oppose him since they still reap the benefits of what he did.
While talking clumsily out of both sides of his mouth here, Money wants to claim there is a window during which a male can acquire the feeling that he should be female during childhood, which then simply cannot be changed.
That means a child can be molded by social factors and environment, which is what Money tried with David, which indicates it was a free choice. Otherwise, what external factors could apply here? Logic demands we can also use external factors to prevent formation of any “gender identity” then, right?
If the social/environmental factors were enough, why did David need surgery and hormones? That’s messing with biology, and it’s not social. And that didn’t even work, as Money admitted since he was “mortified by” this story and wouldn’t discuss it towards the end of his life even though he had used it as proof to support his stupid ideas.
What reliable evidence did he ever have that any of that is true? What evidence did he ever have that a “gender identity” is fixed at any point or whatever age, when he couldn’t even define “gender” coherently because no one can?
The primary evidence he had was David Reimer, which was a big, fat failure based on lies and child abuse. That was the so-called evidence he used to propagate this across the world. If David’s “gender identity” couldn’t be shaped or fixed, then whose can and how could that be proven?
Nobody’s can because nobody has a “gender identity” or “gender role” since those don’t exist.
He built a career on this fraud and many have suffered and continue to suffer because of it, and no new evidence has been discovered since 1991 to support it because it’s been a lie since its inception.
Decent and Humane
It would be great if we could be decent and humane. Mutilating and abusing children or adults is neither decent nor humane. Letting men ruin women’s sports or putting men in women’s prisons, the inevitable outcomes of this lie, isn’t either.
Here is the most decent and humane thing we can tell everyone and anyone, and it is the only solution to this mess.
You are your body. Therefore, “trans” is not real.
That means several other logical propositions must follow.
