Freud claims the formation of femininity through his explanation of psychic development during the child's sexuality. He explains that he does not wish to explain who a woman is but only how she becomes feminine because of her bisexual tendencies. Freud's theory of femininity arouses speculation since it develops it in the context of masculinity. He claims that the turning point in a girl's sexuality occurs when she realizes she has been castrated and develops penis envy. This raises concerns because it automatically places the man, at least the male organs, in an advantageous hierarchical position. Nevertheless, Freud's theory can be justified from a socio-psychological perspective, considering that a girl faces disadvantages and inequalities from a social point of view which build in her a psychological inferiority which leads her to the conclusion that the lack of a penis makes her inferior. Freud explains gender formation through the four stages of the psychological development of a child with bisexual dispositions. He states that boys have a much easier time developing their masculinity than girls do in developing their femininity. The difference lies in the additional obstacles that girls must overcome during their psychological development. Boys and girls are pretty much the same until the phallic stage, in fact Freud states that “the little girl is a little man” since she exhibits many masculine traits. During the oral and anal phase, girls and boys derive the same pleasure from the same things. Even in the early phallic stage, boys and girls derive pleasure from a similar area; boys from their penis and girls from their clitoris. According to Freud, this derivation of pleasure from the clitoris is a song of masculinity placing...... middle of paper ......e""(114). He explains that this connotation comes from the sexual act where the sperm seeks the eggs and also from the fact that it is the male who seeks the female and penetrates her. Even if the metal attributes of gender associations attribute the patriarchy of masculinity, they do not explain how the little girl automatically identifies the penis as something superior to her clitoris. In fact, Freud argues that the psychological characteristics of femininity do not give preference to a passive aim. “Achieving a passive goal may require a large amount of activity” (115). Sometimes it is possible for a woman's passive tendencies from her sex life to carry over into her life. However, sexual behavior is not the only one that could push women into passivity: “the influence of social customs, which in the same way force women into passive situations. »” (115).
