  You have that 100% wrong. Wealthy Viennese families were complaining that their adolescent daughters were making up stories about being meated by their fathers and uncles. Freud built an entire field around this idea of the I’d and subconscious desires rather than believe in child abuse. This book is written by a former Director of the Freud archives and explains the issue pretty well. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Assault_on_Truth

  I have no idea if Freud did it on purpose but I should go to some underserved branch of science and make up the most offensive shit imaginable so that researchers get fucking riled up and spend some budget putting in the work to prove it all wrong. Call them Freudian Consequences.

  Let’s be fair though. There wasn’t a body of data to work from, the science side of it was essentially in its infancy, and you do have to start somewhere.

  For all the flaws in his conclusions, he did do a marvelous thing in the awareness of mental health being addressable in a more gentle way

    Freud was great, because he was so infuriatingly wrong that the collective drive to disprove him kickstarted psychology /j

  Freud had one legitimate case study and it was himself.

  It’s kinda true though lol. Most people are naturally horny and creepy but socialization teaches us to respect people’s boundaries.
