All phallic and non-all: Lacan elaborations about the sexualization

Abstract

The interest of this paper is to present the theoretical advances made ​​by Lacan from the introduction of a logic around the problem of sexualization, in which he delineated the precise way the masculine and feminine positioning by their mode of enjoyment. It is, then, with his famous sexualization formulas that Lacan teaching articulates the anatomical difference under the two opposing logics (the all-phallic in men and not-all in the women) and too two distinct species of enjoyment (the phallic and supplemental). Such constructions show a decisive turning in the approach of femininity, which is in evidence the formalization of the Oedipus beyond - a way to accept the Oedipus proposition, but also to point out that on the horizon we can only recognize the logic of all-phallic, that produces the male position but not in feminine.
