Seduction and desire : a psychoanalytic theory of sexuality beyond Freud

Summary: New forms of relationship and family as well as a pluralisation of sexual ways of living characterize modern society 100 years after Freud. The author gives a systematic presentation of psychoanalytic theories and develops a model of human sexuality that transgresses gender-binarities, integrates ""male""--Phallic and ""female""--receptive parts, and encompasses the diversity of gender identifications and sexual varieties. She highlights the structural similarities between heterosexuality, homosexuality, and perversion and argues for a universal human sexuality in which men and women differ leaf.
