Sexuality is essentially the contact of the bodies and the secretion of fluids, which is associated with the sensation of pleasure (jouissance) (REALES). Love is the complex play with these sensations within a jointly created framework of signs, words and syntheses (SYMBOLIC). Images are in between: the mirror image is narcissistic and the other person’s […]
the worst “seems” to be being unmasked. Unmasking would mean recognizing a real lack (real because not only Oedipal constructed) of elementary attention and putting oneself into the hands of someone else who could be manipulated before and is therefore obviously unreliable.
