I've heard in psychology it's the opposite, which is kind of unfortunate. Like one guy I follow on YouTube talked about wanting to research something (can't remember what, but take something like pedophilia) but was told that if he went forward with it he'd be viewed as one because people often want to research what they're familiar with. I personally find that a bit more important to study than whether ants track their steps, but I'm just one person 🥲
