Greetings!
This is my first post set specifically to test out the blog. It's been a while since I've used this ^,^'' Hopefully this won't be too hard to get into...
Sigmund Freud had a Good Point
Sigmund Freud is constantly berated as a joke of a psychologist and a meme. Originally posted by lookhuman (A good meme but still.) I would like to take some time to say, while Freud wasn’t a super genius or right about everything, he made some good points and he was quite progressive for a man of his time. Freud came up with the idea of “Penis Envy”, a feeling that grows in girls who then give birth in an attempt to fill some void left by the lack of a penis. In the literal sense, this makes no sense. But metaphorically and symbolically, this issue is a huge point made in everyday life as a passing female. (I specify “passing” to include trans and nonbinary peeps.) As a passing female, in a patriarchal world, she must adapt herself to fit into the male-dominated world if she ever wants to get somewhere in life. The most extreme ways of adapting are easily visible during middle/high school years. You have your “girly-girls” and your “tom-boys”. Originally posted by 365days...
