ABSTRACT
A force, or "drive", "urges" us to live, to go forwards. It's our internal "motor", which energizes our daily life, from birth to death. Different psychologists have highlighted the basic importance of one or another of these innate drives. Right from birth, eating allows us to select from the external world what we need in order to grow. Aggression is of course indispensable to maintain our place in this world. Just as healthy utilization of honest and respectful aggression can be abused which has led to a rejection of all aggression and the same applies to sexuality in our Western culture, due to similar abuse and misunderstanding. Diverse ideologies, customs and prejudices have always appropriated this particularly sensitive domain which has often been used as a "weapon" by many powers: imperial, revolutionary, ecclesiastical, even medical. Sexual relations between a client and his therapist are ethically forbidden, whether during or outside sessions, during the whole of the therapy and even after.
