→The Male Side
[[Image:form1.jpg|200px150px]]
On the male side of the [[formulae of sexuation|diagram]] we have the following.
[[Image:form1.jpg|150px]] can be read as "there is a form of ''jouissance'' that is not subject to castration."
[[Image:form1.jpg|150px]] can be read as "there is at least one x which is not submitted to the phallic function]]."
"There exists an x determined by its saying no to the function of castration."
Perhaps they send pages and pages of beautiful correspondance to one another, bemoaning their inability to consummate their passion, but the whole point is to avoid passing to the act so as to sustain the belief that complete ''[[jouissance]]'' exists and discovering, once again, the disappointment of [[phallic]] ''[[jouissance]]''.
