NETTO, Oswaldo Ferreira Leite. Psychoanalysts in face of the matter of homosexuality: perplexity?. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2014, vol.48, n.1, pp. 81-92. ISSN 0486-641X.

The Freudian revolution allowed the establishment of a clinic emancipatory of the human being and instruments for the understanding of the peculiar relationship between man and his desire. Misleadings in the instrumentalization of psychoanalytic theories may lead them to hold positions committed to standardization and behavioral prescriptions unrelated to Freudian proposals for the creation of a "profane shepherd of souls". Psychoanalysis is essential and profoundly different from medicine and religion in terms of the appreciation of certain behaviors. The author is concerned about Freudian legacy and the sustainment of those positions which put us, psychoanalysts, in countercurrent.

Palabras clave : medicine; psychoanalysis; drive; homosexualities; eroticism; psychiatric power; medicalization; theorization; depathologization; prejudice.
