New film may unravel the mystery of how 'transgender' paper dolls came to be
Recent news reports discussing the upcoming launch of 'transgender' paper dolls for young children — funded by American taxpayers and promoting destructive, sex-rejecting, transgender ideology — have led many to wonder how our society lost its common sense.
But an upcoming film documenting the 'work' of a sex researcher (and child sexual abuser) — who believed society might be better off if men were castrated like farm animals at birth — may hold the key to unlocking the mystery of the paper dolls.
The NY Post reported about new paper dolls for "gender diverse children ages 4-10" which came about as a result of taxpayer-subsidized research from the University of Minnesota Medical School for Sexual and Gender Health.
Many may question how society got to the point where biological sex is now often denied altogether in favor of how a person 'feels' inside, but a new film exposes one of the men behind the curtain of gender ideology's rapid advancement.
Sex researcher John Money was raised by females who held "anti-male" sentiments, and he began to adopt these views himself. He reportedly wondered if society would be better off if human males were castrated at birth like farm animals.
Money claimed infants were born 'gender neutral' but he put his theory to the test, horribly victimizing a family and their twin boys; both boys eventually took their own lives.
The new film, "John Money," purports to tell the story of how Money's experiments harmed Bruce and Brian Reimer, and their parents, Ron and Janet.
Money's and his cohorts' theories about gender and sexuality have helped to lead society to where we are today: a place in which paper dolls are created to indoctrinate young children into denying their biological sex, which can lead to permanent, irreversible consequences and severe regret.
The New York Post recently reported on the upcoming launch of “MyGender Dolls” — paper dolls with interchangeable hair, clothing and... genitals.
The “dolls,” initially the result of research from the taxpayer-subsidized University of Minnesota Medical School for Sexual and Gender Health, are reportedly meant to “make gender fun” while purporting to be the “first-of-their-kind therapeutic play approach designed for gender diverse children ages 4-10.”
These dolls are the latest example of taxpayer-funded propaganda used to further indoctrinate vulnerable minds with gender-ideology, which rejects biological reality and was built upon lies perpetrated by sexual predators and their sympathizers, who intentionally target children.
A new film tells the story of one of those sexual predators. "John Money," produced by Brasil Parlelo, claims to tell “the story of a case that transformed a family’s life and forever altered the limits of science.”
John Money was an influential psychologist, ‘sex researcher,’ and professor who began to mainstream the idea of “gender identity” while working at the first gender clinic at Johns Hopkins University and Hospital.
Money told his biographer, John Colapinto, that his mother and aunts who raised him harbored “anti-male” sentiments. Money reportedly “wondered if the world might really be a better place for women if not only farm animals but human males also were gelded [or castrated] at birth.”
Colapinto also wrote that Money struggled with “guilt of being male” and that he sought to “forever avoid the role of the ‘man of the household,’” believing that he “wore the mark of a man’s vile sexuality.”
Money helped to mainstream the idea of “sex reassignment” practices and surgeries on infants, children and adults — practices and flawed ideological concepts that are still promoted by Planned Parenthood, SIECUS (a leader in sex education), Advocates for Youth (AFY) and other aligned groups.
Money focused much of his early research on his limited and flawed knowledge of sexual disorders to develop his theory that infants are born “gender neutral.”
As explained in Live Action’s recent report, Money proposed “that a child’s identity — separate from biological sex — becomes 'locked in' as male or female early in life during the so-called ‘gender identity gate’ (p. 35).”
The New York Times summarized details of some of Money's ‘research’ in his book, "Man and Woman, Boy and Girl," stating:
... [I]t is usually easier, after a certain age, to change the child physically through surgery and hormone treatment than it is to switch his mindset…
That is to say, if you tell a boy he is a girl, and raise him as one, he will want to do feminine things. In most cases, rather than suspecting that he is a boy, he will see his penis as an embarrassment, and want to be repaired to physically fit his view of himself as a girl.
Brazil Paralelo’s website on the upcoming film states that Money’s theory “gained academic prestige and spread through universities, medical protocols, and public policies. But his idea would be tragically put to the test” (emphasis orginal).
Like other sexologists and sex education propagandists of the time — including Planned Parenthood medical director turned SIECUS founder, Mary Calderone — John Money casually advocated for and tried to normalize pedophilia, incest, orgies, bestiality, and other sexual deviance.
For example, as Live Action News reported, Money claimed that pedophilia was “simply the love of children,” stating in an interview in “Paidika: The Journal of Paedophilia”:
Paedophilia should just be accepted for its etymological meaning, which is simply the love of children. Neither boys nor girls—just the love of children. It’s not the so-called parent-child, pairbonded love. It includes that and then adds the erotic love or lover bonding.
In the same interview, Money added:
[I]f I were to see the case of a boy aged ten or eleven who’s intensely erotically attracted toward a man in his twenties or thirties, if the relationship is totally mutual [or consensual], and the bonding is genuinely totally mutual, then I would not call it pathological in any way.
If a child is "intensely erotically attracted" in such a way, this should be a red flag that the child may have already become a victim of sexual abuse. RAINN (lesser known as the Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network) points out that one of the behavioral signs of sexual abuse in young children is "inappropriate sexual behavior for their age." RAINN adds:
Many perpetrators are adults in trusted roles—family members, teachers, coaches. Red flags include:
Ignoring physical or emotional boundaries
Giving gifts for no reason
Isolating a child from others
Excessive time alone with the child
Inappropriate conversations or sexual comments
Yet Money and others like him, including Alfred Kinsey's fellow researcher, Wardell Pomeroy, believe adult/child sexual relationships can even be healthy (even if they're incestuous). It is their beliefs on which today's school comprehensive sex ed programming is based.
With flawed scientific theories and a morally depraved ideology, Money put his beliefs into practice, exploiting a desperate couple named Ron and Janet Reimer, whose twin boys, Bruce and Brian, suffered life-altering consequences.

After a tragic accident during an attempted circumcision left baby Bruce’s genitals mutilated, the Reimers went to John Money for help; he convinced the couple to raise their son as a girl — “Brenda.”
Live Action News previously noted the serious allegations against Money — that he repeatedly sexually abused the twin brothers. Colapinto wrote that Money “forced [the boys] to strip naked and ‘inspect’ each other’s genitals,” and made them “engage in pornographic poses with each other” — which Money referred to as “childhood sexual rehearsal play.”
Bruce was administered feminizing hormones contrary to his biological sex, in addition to surgical attempts to mimic female genitalia. For these horrific violations, Money was praised and elevated among the scientific community and in the media. Consequently, Bruce struggled with life-long mental health afflictions.
Brasil Paralelo’s film trailer depicts multiple intense scenes apparently intended to illustrate the devastating impacts of Money’s practices on Bruce/"Brenda" and the Reimer family.
Years later, Bruce learned the truth about his biological sex and changed his name to David. Tragically, both Bruce (David) and his brother Brian later took their own lives. Brasil Paralelo notes:
The case, presented as a scientific success, ended in tragedy and, decades later, was exposed as a disastrous experiment. Even so, John Money continued to be quoted and revered.
To this day, his ideas influence cultural and scientific debates around the world, and their consequences continue to be discussed.

Despite the Reimers' case being exposed as an absolute failure — in addition to the well-documented sexual abuse and perversion perpetrated by Money — the anti-life and gender-ideology aligned industries only continued to push and expand Money’s scandal plagued ideas — and the U.S. government continues to fund it in various ways.
While receiving taxpayer dollars, Planned Parenthood has only further disseminated Money’s theories throughout its K-12 school curriculum, content and medicalized practices still evident today—and has done so with devastating mounting consequences for a growing population of youth.
Planned Parenthood, a self-proclaimed leader in ‘gender-affirming care’ (GAC), also financially benefits from the medicalization of this destructive ideology, including life-altering hormones and puberty blockers.
After complaints were received by parents regarding the use of the “transgendered” paper dolls in schools, the U.S. Education Department (ED) announced its launch of an investigation into the Minnesota Department of Education.
However, experts recently criticized the Trump administration for its continued taxpayer funding through the National Institutes of Health to study “gender-affirming care for BIPOC and rural gender diverse youth.”
Unfortunately, after a mere one year of defunding, Planned Parenthood, as one of the largest providers of sex-rejecting medicalized practices, has regained access to approximately $700M annually in Medicaid dollars.
