Extimacy

[[Lacan]] coins the term ''[[extimité]]'' by applying the prefix ''ex'' -- from ''exterieur'', "exterior" -- to the [[Freud]] word ''intimité'' -- "intimacy".
===Examples===

For example, the [[real]] is just as much [[inside]] as [[outside]]. The [[unconscious]] is not a purely [[inside|interior]] [[psychic]] [[system]] but an [[intersubjectivity|intersubjective]] [[structure]] -- "the unconscious is outside".
The [[structure]] of [[extimacy]] is perfectly expressed in the [[topology]] of the [[torus]] and of the [[moebius strip]].
