“We live in a society in which gross psychiatric symptoms - those symptoms that belong to real psychiatry - are passed off as standards of fashion and behavior,” said Irina Medvedeva, director of the Public Institute for Demographic Security.

“Pay attention,” says the psychiatrist, “sloppiness is actively promoted now - dirty greasy hair, torn stockings, torn jeans, the hem of a coat or shirt of different lengths, or buttoned up with the wrong buttons. In psychiatric hospitals they know that there is such a column in the medical history: the neatness of the patient. If the patient is not neat, this is an indicator of a very severe psychiatric disorder. When a person constantly wears torn socks or stockings, does not wash his hair or button his shirt incorrectly, this is a psychiatric symptom that today, unfortunately, exists as a sign of youth fashion."

“Or let's take the heroes of many action films and thrillers - these are super-strong people who solve their problems, destroying and destroying all living and non-living things in their path. This effect in psychiatry is called hypoid schizophrenia, which combines pathological juvenile cruelty with pathological dullness of the heart, that is, pathological insensibility,”Medvedeva notes.

“Another quality of a person is excessive rationalism, which today is imposed as pragmatism. This is also a sign of schizophrenia. The layman often thinks that the schizophrenic is irrational. This is not true. The schizophrenic is overly rational, but at the same time insensitive. Actually, this - “less emotion, more pragmatism” - is what the ideologists of the new fashion urge young people today, but this is a very difficult symptom.

And what is the destruction of intimate shame from the point of view of psychiatry? “According to Irina Medvedeva,“this is not just the imposition of all sorts of perversions, such as voyeurism (when they show on TV what is happening in other people's bedrooms), but also the popularization of sexopathological deviations. And sexopathology is part of psychopathology."

»But the most important thing in destroying intimate shame is that by telling young people about safe sex, they are encouraged to satisfy their sexual interest, belittling the value of family and marriage relations, which are an essential element in building a normal psyche. In their absence, various disorders are inevitable, very painful for the psyche. This leads, in particular, to the mental degradation of the entire society."
