>After the stage of heterosexual object choice has been reached, the homosexual tendencies are not, as might be supposed, done away with or brought to a stop; they are merely deflected from their sexual aims and applied to fresh uses. They now combine with portions of the ego instincts and, as "anaclitic" components, help to constitute the social instincts, thus contributing an erotic factor to friendship and comradeship, to espirit de corps and to the love of mankind in general.

>It is not irrelevant to note that it is precisely manifest homosexuals, and among them again precisely those that struggle against an indulgence in sensual acts, who distinguish themselves by taking a particularly active share in the general interests of humanity - interests which have themselves sprung from a sublimation of erotic instincts.

Is he right?

Okay /lit. What do we make of this guy?

I've spent the day reading Freud (and his fanclub) and honestly I think it is vile. It seems to me that Freudian psychoanalysis is just a made up discipline to give cokehead pedophiles unfettered access to mentally ill children

I think reducing human existence to the flux between the build up and discharge of libido (sexual energy) is extremely reductive. Perhaps Mr. Freud is doing some projecting of his own here. There's a more reasoned critique for you.

Ultimately, however, this stuff read as literal smut. Foul stuff.

What do you think? Any big fans here?

Only experience I have with it is hearing Zizek talking about Lacan.

Why don't you try to emigrate? Perhaps obsessively searching out and reading degen prose is just cope, an attempt to dull your sensibilities through constant exposure to all this excessive edge and forget about the Mordor around you?

Wrong. Best fantasy novels, like all best art, or even all art, are inspired by blue balls, i.e. sublimation

You seem to see trannies everywhere. Do you also see trannies in your dreams? Do you wake up with a hard pp and sticky stuff on our pants after having nightmares about those disgusting trannies forcing you to do yucky things?

>People are lesbians because they got sexually assaulted and therefore are scared of dicks
Am I reading him right?

Any good written psychoanalysis of this man? Why did he spend his life doing what he did?

Freudian science has been abandoned for dsmv pill pushing sophistry. Absent fathers and overbearing mothers do wonders for a boys self image. Either that or they end up that way from being Horribly Raped and Molested as children.
