-
but what I mean is well-known defenders of Freud
-
will make some claims like:
-
adult personality traits are shaped by
-
the course of psychosexual development;
-
all dreams are disguised wish fulfillment;
-
psychoanalysis is the best treatment for mental disorders.
-
Scientists will respond, "I disagree.
-
There's little or no evidence supporting those claims."
-
And the Freudian response is,
-
"Your rejection of my ideas
-
shows that they are distressing to you.
-
This is because I am right."
