Abstract

The identity and the human sexuality are a dialectic pair that runs through the analytical work. Sexuality both confronts us with the most enigmatic of the object and our own self, and allows us to greater intimacy with others and gives us the ineffable sense of being, throughout our lives, ourselves. In the analytic relationship, the sexuality is present in a disturbing way. The sexuality in the transfer is always unsettling, disruptive for the convenience of interpretations related to infantile dependence. The breakthrough, however expected to be, leaves us speechless and surprised. The sexuality never shows how or where we expect it. I will present clinical material that led me to think of this dialectic pair sexuality, identity, in their mutual determination, their disruption and confrontation, its very complex interdependence. The dialectical relationship between subjectivity and sexuality become more complex through vectors of interdependence and mutual determination, as well as infinite tension, disruption and mutual threats. As a result of a certain fear of the eroticism of the transference-countertransference's links, it seems that there becomes a des-libidinization of analytical links and thus, their sterility. The aim of the analyst is to understand the enigmatic, his psychosexuality is at the time of the analytical work, channeled and directed to understanding the mind of the patient. From that place of ethics, his sexed self enters in transference dynamics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
