1. Dr Money’s Sex-Change Experiment
via.ensemble202.rssing.com
By far and away the creepiest, most immoral and decidedly horrific science experiments of all time concerns the noted gender identity pioneer, Dr John Money. He had long since led the field in sexual development and was introduced to the parents of 8-month old Bruce Reimer after a botched circumcision had left the infant with a stump for a penis. Money’s solution was immediate and tied in neatly with research he happened to be doing on nature vs nurture identity theories; he convinced the parents to give Bruce gender realignment surgery and bring him up as a girl.
The experiment was a failure on all counts. Money had hoped to test Bruce against his twin brother and see if the tots identified with different genders as they grew up as brother and sister. Unfortunately, Bruce never felt comfortable as a girl and failed to identify with his lifestyle, proving Money wrong. Even more disturbingly, both twins accused Money of forcing them to engage in incestuous sex games with each other as youngsters, which led both twins to tragically commit suicide within two years of each other.
While experimentation is always necessary to push the boundaries of science, it often comes at a cost. With experiments as morally dubious and lacking in humanity as these are, it has to be asked: are the sacrifices worthwhile?
