Modern society has introduced many new relationships and family
forms and the pluralisation of sexual lifestyles in the hundred
years since Freud. This book provides a systematic account of the
current state of theory, developing a gender-wide model of human
sexuality and outlining the implications of this for psychotherapy
practice. The author argues that the development of human sexuality
follows no innate biological programs, but takes place in an
interpersonal relationship, often established in the early
parent-child relationship. Whereas the current psychoanalytic
discourse emanates from a rather rigid division of gender relations
emphasizing the differences between men and women, the author
develops a gender-wide model of human sexuality in which the
'masculine' and 'feminine' are integrated and contribute to the
full diversity of gender identities and sexual varieties. She
points to structural similarities of hetero-and homosexuality and
perversion and calls for a general human sexuality that is based
less on differences between men and women than with each other.
