PRESTOPUNDIT -- A Good Blog at a Great Price. Guaranteed.

"Brenda"/David Reimer ends his life. The human and social sciences of 1960s were built on a foundation of falsehoods and fraud -- from Margaret Meade, Sigmund Freud and Alfred Kinsley to John Keynes, Karl Marx and B. F. Skinner -- a house of fictions and pseudo-science propping up an ideology hostile to traditional liberal civilization and its institutions. But none of these frauds and fictions are as heartbreaking to discover as is the story of "Brenda", a boy sacrificed to the "scientific" sexual ideology of a modern pediatric Mengele. Wendy McElroy reports on this incredibly sad story of fraud and inhumanity. Posted by Greg Ransom | TrackBack
