PERRINI, Cleuza Mara Lourenço. Some considerations about masculinity⇔femininity within the psychic life. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2015, vol.49, n.4, pp. 155-168. ISSN 0486-641X.

This paper aims to reflect on the issue of masculinity and femininity as both men's and women's mental functions. We take into account the fact that masculinity and femininity coexist inside our psychic life, creating, preserving, and denying aspects of each particular experience. The author proposes some extended thoughts as she points out that, if these functions are not integrated inside our psychic life, they express themselves in rivalries inside ourselves and in our loving, fraternal, and professional relationships. It harms the reciprocal and complementary encounter that underlies the human incompleteness in its search for creative relationships.

Palavras-chave : femininity; masculinity; rivalry; incompleteness; integration.
