ABSTRACT
This section discusses the two types of spaces that characterize Lacan’s formula for sexuation. It shows that these spaces, which are called all-phallic and non-all phallic, refer to the way a subject incorporates sex by a fantasy. The section explores how these two spaces bring forth the function of castration and highlights the relation between nomination and repetition. It also introduces the importance of the term consistency for understanding how sexual difference is transmitted as a lack from one generation to another.
