Changes

[[Castration]] is referred to throughout the work of [[Freud]] and [[Lacan]]. Although it undergoes certain referential changes, [[castration]] retains its place as a necessary element in the [[structuring]] of [[sexuality]] for the [[speaking]] [[being]].

In all of his discussions on [[sexuality]], [[Freud]] emphasizes [[castration]]. What [[Freud]] learned from his [[clinical]] [[practice]] is that [[sexuality]] always involves a dimension of the impossibility of reaching total [[satisfaction]]. In order to achieve some [[satisfaction]] it is necessary to renounce [[total]] [[satisfaction]] and this [[renunciation]] is one of the references to [[castration]], where [[castration]] is a condition for [[satisfaction]].
