RE: Why Do People Act In Opposition To Their Internal Desires? The Theory of Reaction Formation

Yes that is true of most people. Sadly those that are cause havoc for everyone else.

and it leads to the "guilt by association" problem.

While I will stand by my statement, I'll argue the point on the post I'll publish.

I hate it when folks derail my blogs (even when there is good discussion ;>) so I'll take my penny off the tracks now!

Lol no problem and I am not saying you are wrong. We all have our different points of view.

To be honest I tend to fluctuate between being an atheist and agnostic with anti-organised religion stance.

What do think about a post on some other less controversial examples of reaction formation? If found a study which had an interesting effect on racism (people overcompensating) and feminism but I'm not sure if people will be interested.
