力比多理论和天生的双性恋母体的想法是理解女性心理的不充分的基础。相反,正是性、攻击性、客体关系和超我的相互影响决定了女性体验自己的方式。超我继承了幼儿时期与客体相关的冲突,这些冲突与性别问题交织在一起。女性可以拥有基本自信、自恋地珍视女性的感觉,同时也会被强烈的不足感和被剥夺感所困扰。本文不是武断地将这些感觉归因于阴茎嫉妒和阉割感,而是基于双性恋作为基石的想法,我们认为主要的女性气质是基石,但是超我,作为未解决的前俄狄浦斯和俄狄浦斯对象相关冲突的继承人,起到维持这些痛苦情绪的作用。临床材料说明了这些想法的实用性。
Libido theory and the idea of an innate matrix of bisexuality are an inadequate basis on which to understand female psychology. Rather, it is the mutual influence of sexuality, aggression, object relations, and a superego that inherits the object-related conflicts of early childhood, intertwined as these are with gender issues, that determine the way a woman experiences herself A woman can have a basically confident, narcissistically valued sense of femaleness and at the same time be troubled by intense feelings of inadequacy and deprivation. Instead of arbitrarily attributing these feelings to penis envy and a sense of castration, based on the idea of bisexuality as bedrock, this paper suggests that we consider primary femininity as bedrock, but that the superego, as heir to unresolved preoedipal and oedipal object-related conflicts, functions to maintain these painful emotions. Clinical material illustrates the utility of these ideas.
