Stabilizing Anticipation in the Psychotic Delusions of some So-Called Transgendered Subjects
p. 121-128
Abstract
The subjective relation to the body is for every human being problematic. Especially at the point of sexuality. Because of the fact man speaks he doesn't coincide with his body. He has to invent. Contemporary scientific techniques make one able to change sex. For several people this is very good news. But are there people we should try not to realize their desire? We will contrast a patient from our private practice with the case of Daniel Paul Schreber. In the second case, no surgery was done, in the second there was. We will argue that in both cases the anticipation of becoming-woman was crucial.
