The “Rock of the Feminine”: The Boundary of Adolescent Sexuality
Type de matériel :
6
"Sexual abuse in the family setting of some adolescent authors seems to highlight a problem of distinguishing what there is of femininity in the maternal object. Here we study this factor specifically: The act corresponds to a “release” of the protection ensured by the maternal imago and/or a higher bid to appropriate the adolescent’s body or mind as an enjoying or distressing object; and the act responds to a gap in symbolic ideas defined by the law. This gap concerns the biological “rock” of castration, of which sexual difference is a calling signal."
