Dr. Diamond, who was just beginning his career at the University of Hawaii, strongly disagreed, and had said so repeatedly — including in a widely read 1965 critique of Dr. Money’s work.
The incident, reported by the journalist John Colapinto in Rolling Stone magazine and in a subsequent book, “As Nature Made Him: The Boy Who Was Raised as a Girl” (2000), was especially heated because of a recent announcement by Dr. Money.
Dr. Money and an associate, Anke A. Ehrhardt, now a researcher in the field, presented their findings in a 1972 book, “Man and Woman, Boy and Girl.” The journalist James Lincoln Collier, writing in The New York Times, called it “the most important volume in the social sciences to appear since the Kinsey reports.”
Worse, Dr. Diamond said he had evidence that Dr. Money, who had met annually with David and his twin brother, had abused the children, forcing them to simulate sexual activity and yelling at them when they refused.
Dr. Diamond argued for the opposite: Identity could not be forced, intersex people deserved a place on the spectrum of human sexuality, and the decision to make changes to their body should be left to the individual.
After three years in the U.S. Army, he attended the University of Kansas and in 1962 earned a doctorate in anatomy and psychology, writing a dissertation on the effects of testosterone in utero.
