[[Voyeurism]] is a deviant [[manifestpractice]]ation of in which the [[individual]] derives [[sexualitysexual]] that involves [[lookpleasure]] from observing other [[people]]ing without being . Such people may be engaged in sexual [[seeacts]]n , or be nude or in order underwear, or dressed in whatever other way the "voyeur" finds appealing. The [[word]] derives from [[French]] verb [[voir]] (to obtain see) with the -eur suffix that translates as -or in [[sexuality|sexualEnglish]]. A literal [[translation]] would then be “seeor” or "[[pleasureobserver]]", with pejorative connotations.
In <i>[[Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality]]</i>,<ref>1905d</ref> [[Freud]] examines [[perversion|sexual perversion]] and indicates the circumstances under which "the [[pleasure]] of [[look]]ing [[[scopophilia]]] becomes a [[perversion]] (a) if it is restricted exclusively to the [[genitals]], or (b) if it is connected with the overriding of disgust (as in the case of <i>voyeurs</i> or people who look on at excretory functions), or (c) if, instead of being <i>preparatory</i> to the normal sexual aim, it supplants it."
Later, in "Instincts and Their Vicissitudes" (1915c), he provided [[Voyeurism]] is a deviant [[metapsychology|metapsychologicalmanifest]] explanation for the ation of [[instinctsexuality]] of that involves [[look]]ing, which involved the voyeur-without [[exhibitionism|exhibitionistbeing]] pair and the [[reversalsee]] of n in [[activityorder]] into to obtain [[passivitysexuality|sexual]] in connection with a precise [[objectpleasure]]: "the sexual member."

==Jacques Lacan==
[[Jacques Lacan]] would later say that the voyeur wants to be seen as a seer.
[[Freud]] continued to emphasize the visual component of the [[perversion]]s, but for him the specificity of [[voyeurism]] is important because of the vicissitude of the [[instinct]] of looking rather than its [[role ]] in perversions. Rather than allowing the evolution of the instinct (component) of looking to develop in different directions, the voyeur reduces the sexual and the visual in sex to a narrow, stereotypical sexual [[situation]]. He appears to do away with the sexual, the [[multiplicity ]] of [[objects ]] and choices, by wrapping [[them ]] in a rigid [[fantasy]]. He tries to block the [[aggression ]] in the instinct in order to obtain pleasure, to the detriment of the other. By [[splitting ]] the ego, he uses sex for the [[purpose ]] of discharging instinctual [[violence]]. By appropriating the other as [[image]], the voyeur makes it an object of pleasure, while remaining uninvolved in the other's intimacy. The voyeur does not seek any [[form ]] of [[exchange ]] or [[relationship]], but obtains pleasure by seizing the other's image against its will. The [[goal ]] is not only the [[sight ]] of parts of the [[body ]] that are concealed out of [[modesty ]] or [[cultural ]] opprobrium, but also to dismember the body of the other. The voyeur watches what is [[forbidden ]] in order to destroy the [[physical ]] integrity of the person by substituting a dismembered body for the [[unified ]] image.Several circumstances can lead to the occurrence of voyeurism. The instinct to see is used through [[disavowal ]] and [[fetish ]] [[formation ]] to deny [[castration]]. The fantasy of the [[phallic ]] [[mother ]] and the [[split ]] of [[awareness ]] of the [[lack ]] of a [[penis ]] leads to rage and [[need ]] for revenge towards her.     For Masud Khan, the [[pervert ]] does not succeed in creating a [[transitional object ]] when reacting against the encroachment of the [[maternal ]] [[unconscious]], but manages to fabricate an "[[internal ]] collage-object," which he then tries to discover in [[external ]] [[reality]]. The voyeur engages in this type of theatricalization of the sexual relation by manipulation, submission, and [[humiliation ]] of the object.Robert Stoller has insisted on the cultural necessity of the perversion "forged by society and the family so that they are not harmed further" by instinctual cruelty. Because voyeurism turns the other into an image, an object of envy and covetousness, it appears to also bear witness to the visual focus of Western society. Seeing at any cost is an imperative that is often confused with science's objective of mastery. In an "omnivisual world," according to Jacques Lacan's expression, the voyeur becomes the one who does not allow himself to be blinded by sexual difference but cannot support the truth. He knows exactly what his mother is like, but tries to save his phallic image through some visual sleight-of-hand. More than anyone, he denies what he sees: the rift between the sexes, the fracture of bodies.

Voyeurism is a practice in which Robert Stoller has insisted on the cultural [[necessity]] of the perversion "forged by [[society]] and the [[family]] so that they are not harmed further" by instinctual [[cruelty]]. Because [[voyeurism]]turns the individual derives sexual pleasure from observing other peopleinto an image, an object of [[envy]] and covetousness, it appears to also bear [[witness]] to the visual focus of Western society. Such people may be engaged in sexual acts[[Seeing]] at any cost is an imperative that is often confused with [[science]]'s [[objective]] of [[mastery]]. In an "omnivisual [[world]], or be nude or in underwear" according to Jacques [[Lacan]]'s expression, or dressed in whatever other way the "voyeur" finds appealingbecomes the one who does not allow himself to be blinded by sexual [[difference]] but cannot support the [[truth]]. The word derives from French verb voir (He [[knows]] exactly what his mother is like, but tries to see) with the save his phallic image through some visual sleight-eur suffix that translates as of-or in Englishhand. A literal translation would then be “seeor” or "observer"More than anyone, he denies what he sees: the rift between the [[sexes]], with pejorative connotationsthe fracture of bodies.
