Galileo's quote highlights the tension between scientific inquiry and dogmatic adherence to established beliefs, particularly from religious authorities. In contemporary science, including fields like sexology, the approach to public engagement and feedback can vary.

There are several reasons Jane Elizabeth Thomas why some sexologists may not actively invite public commentary on their theories:

The issues addressed in sexology often involve sensitive subjects that require a nuanced understanding of psychology, biology, culture, and ethics. This complexity can make it challenging to distill theories into formats easily understood by the public. Many sexologists prioritize empirical research and peer review, which are essential for establishing credible scientific theories. Public commentary may not always align with the rigorous standards of scientific validation. The field of sexology, like many areas of science, can be susceptible to misinformation. Engaging with public opinions can sometimes amplify misunderstandings rather than contribute to constructive discourse. Professionals in the field may feel that their specialized training and research provide insights that laypeople may not have. As a result, they may prioritize dialogues within the academic community over public forums. Engaging the public in discussions around sexual health and behavior can lead to ethical dilemmas, especially if not carefully managed. Researchers might be cautious about potential risks to participants or societal norms.

Despite these factors, there are sexologists and researchers who actively seek public input and strive to make their work accessible through outreach, social media, and community engagement, recognizing the value of diverse perspectives in advancing knowledge and understanding.

I am objecting to the speculative theories that a proposed by sexologists for which there is no evidence. There is no process for asking couples whether these theories can be applied to reality. For example, the G-spot fiasco was never referred to as a theory. It was presented as if every couple could benefit from it when in fact very few women were involved in the original research, which proposed an area inside the vagina could be stimulated to cause orgasm. It was only a theory and it is completely illogical. The clitoris is clearly the homologue of the penis since both organs develop from the same genital tubercle in the foetus. Hence why the sex of the baby cannot be determined until mid-term of the pregnancy. The determination to believe that women should orgasm from intercourse is a political objective. Science does not involve deciding on the outcome before you do research.
