What is your opinion on Freud's theories? (Please expand your answers in the comments)

most of the people on this app are teenage girls, they probably know nothing about psychology

subconsciously we all think about sex and all that. I dont understand enough about psychology to be insightful but i understand why he would say that

@Numbers I know but there are also some decent people on here. If anyone at all has an opinion on this I will be interested to hear it. I put it on the crowd for people over 15 also to avoid the majority of the children

what are his theories?x

They r all true!!! Societies influence on children turns them into spoiled demons. Makes men go 4 physical desire through Eros and intimacy while girls r manipulated by anything but however they know wat to pick is right for them, according to their resistance to wats bad.

@Livvv▪️◾️◼️◾️▪️honestly It would take a while to explain everything. But I do not mind educating you so if you would still like to know then please let me know

Wait I see you're the age of 14. What do people think about that? Is 14 too young for me to explain his theories?

@#HCQ sweetcattiem👑 no it's not

@Michael Bagdasarian there's a lot of sexual emphasis though and I believe it requires a mature mind to appreciate

@#HCQ sweetcattiem👑 u can help but try

okay thank youu x

One of Freud's theories was his theory of personality. He says that there are 3 parts to the personality, the id, the ego and the superego. You are born with the id, it is demanding and acts on the pleasure principle. The second part to develop is the ego (around 18 months) which is rational and it balances the demands of the id with the control of the superego. The final part is the superego which develops at around the age of 5. It's is the moral part which comes from your parents and society. An example is if you have been invited to a party but you have homework to do. The id would be like "go to the party" the superego would be like "stay home and do the homework" and the ego may say "go to the party but come home early and do the homework" I will save the rest of his theories for another time

also the id and superego are unconscious. The ego is conscious

Well this is fucking pretentious.

@justcurious wtf? Are you talking about me or Freud ?

Freud is totally out there, there's no data for anything he says, and basically all of his studies are biased from his childhood. He had problems with his mother so if you mention anything negative about your mom, boom! That's the reason why you're screwed up! But, he is still pretty brilliant and not all of the things he said were totally incorrect. I still think the id, superego, and ego thing is pretty awesome.

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 yeah, well there will never be factual evidence to back up his theories because they aren't measurable. Personally I don't think much if any of his theories are true, it is a matter of opinion though. But I still find his ideas interesting

@#HCQ sweetcattiem👑 Yeeea but not being able to prove that your theory works is a design flaw on its own lol. And yea, that's pretty much how I feel about his theories too

His theories are true. There is the Id, ego and superego. The Id is our bad side, the reptilian brain we have

Sigmund Freud was brilliant for his time. He didn't have a lot of evidence to back up his theories but they were interesting and had potential for his time.

@Michael they're merely theories, can't be proven

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 yeah that is true, however evidence to back up a theory that is provided by the creator of the theory is often bias and incredible. Freud did have "evidence" it just wasn't scientific in the slightest. His evidence was his clients accepting what he was telling them

@#HCQ sweetcattiem👑 Ha all of that is very true
