Psychoanalysis is unfortunately super huge in large parts of the world, South America and several European countries (mine in particular). Dismissing that insanely creepy and condescending comment from Quora by claiming that it's because of a different context is laughable. Convoluted explanations don't hide the fact that it's manipulative and creepy to claim that a client (or "patient" as these people love to call it) is there to fall in love. Also if psychoanalysis is outdated in the US, why all the mentions of "transference" then ?(just on this forum for instance). One thing that always strikes me with clients who have drunk the kool-aid is their smug satisfaction: "well I'm not like those losers for whom therapy isn't working, it works because I'm a good client and I work hard!" LOL I guess one thing therapy doesn't teach is self-awareness.
