Abstract

JORGE, Marco Antonio Coutinho  and  MARQUES, Luciana. The oedipus complex and the phallic function: about the raise of children by homoparental couple. Trivium [online]. 2016, vol.8, n.2, pp.143-155. ISSN 2176-4891.  https://doi.org/10.18379/2176-4891.2016v2p.143.

In this article we intend to examine the function of the castration as a guide to the choice of the sex. Halted in the paternal metaphor and its effects, we propose to analyze the symbolic and imaginary functions of the phallus. We intend to demystify the still strong promotion of normative premises that do not only walk towards the discourse of the complementarity of sex but also disseminate in the social imaginary matters that mention the importance of the genitor's sex in the familiar functions and the inherent risks, due to the lack of a anatomic sex indicator, in children raised by homosexual couples. To oppose the current moral speech, we show the importance of the father in the function of Law and the mother's as a status of treasure of the significant to the infans, both shut from any necessary anatomic distinction to the assumption of a subject of desire.

Keywords : SEXUALITY; HOMOSEXUALITY; OEDIPUS COMOLEX; PHALLUS; CASTRATION.
