Dr. Diamond is an early pioneer in trans research. Outside of the trans community, he is best known for exposing the "John/Joan" case in which Dr. Money (who allegedly physically attacked Dr. Diamond years before) faked his research to make the world believe that gender identity is a choice.
We talk about his research experience, the history of terminology, his "rivalry" with John Money and more. I found Diamond to be gracious and interesting... I'm glad to have had an opportunity to talk with one of the original modern gender researchers.
