Great comics about the depressed philandering cokeheads who shaped much of modern philosophy!
Freudian slip: where you say one thing but mean your mother.
I’ve always heard it as “Where you mean to say one thing but fuck your mother”
He definitely had a thing for mothers too, so it’s weird that he’s disagreeing with her in the last cell.
If it was a man instead of a woman the problem would be the mother.
In a society where women were repressed into a very narrowly defined role with no room for deviation, the other half enjoyed an attitude of “boys will be boys” and could behave “freely” from their perspective, within a less narrow but no less rigid societal constrain.
Women were literally prohibited, or at least severely frowned upon, to embark on a myriad activities that were acceptable and expected for men. Women were literally prohibited from entering many physical spaces, and were expected to be confined to other spaces - like the kitchen, the parlor and the tea room.
I guess it was impossible even for Freud to see how “penis envy” might have been, at root, “I wish I was a man so I could escape this narrow set of rules I was born and peer-pressured into, with no choice by me, I wish I was free” (not quite free, just “less trapped”).
I would suggest the autor to study psychology before giving this humorous statement
Freud was all about building interesting models for human consciousness, then using them to come to the wildest conclusions.
Tbf, with the sexually repressed and patriarchal society he was working in, there may have been some truth to the complexes he described. But to try and universalize them was a mistake imo.
Some interpret “penis envy” as a purely symbolic metaphor for envying the power and freedom given to men, with the inverse “castration anxiety” being fear of losing said power.
Freud hypothesized the subconscious had its own logic that was more about association than rational connection.
It’s kind of ironic that Freud came up with this weird theory considering autogynephilia is more common in men than autoandrophilia is in women: The Prevalence of Paraphilic Interests in the Czech Population: Preference, Arousal, the Use of Pornography, Fantasy, and Behavior
