Perhaps the most prominent – and damaging - modern offshoot of the ideomotor effect is the phenomenon of [[LGBT|LGBTI/gender ideology]].{{#tag:ref|cf. The social and behavioral sciences have a long history of being shaped and driven by politics and ideology. This is partly because researchers often choose to study issues implicating controversial questions of public policy. And it is partly because it is often impossible to perform the kind of objective observations and controlled experiments that are standard in the physical sciences. History is littered with notorious examples of false theories gaining wide acceptance among respected social and behavioral scientists, some of which supported pernicious public policies.<ref>{{cite web |title=The shaky science behind same-sex marriage |author=Harvey C.

The reported cases of [[ex-homosexuals]] had revealed there is no mysterious force at play, natural or [[supernatural]], [[biological]] or otherwise – just a propensity for men and women to delude themselves. The evidence is clear – believing to be ''‘born that way’'' is nothing more than self-delusion buttressed by the ubiquitous ideomotor effect.
