A phenomenological exam of the Freudian conception of libido. Despite some outdated resistances, Freud's conception of sexuality is nowadays well accepted in our culture and the word libido belongs itself to the everyday language. This success might surprise our contemporaries considering how much this conception is in many ways questionable. From a phenomenological point of view, we would like in this article to undermine the concepts of drive, infantile sexuality, autoerotism and narcissism, which are highly problematic. Even if it would be unfair to assimilate the Freudian psychoanalysis to a 'pansexualism', as if all human behaviour is somehow sexuality motivated, we are convinced that it gives to much importance to sexuality in the human as well as in the pathological existence.
