ABSTRACT

At the beginning of the last century, the founder of psychoanalysis argued that social life is based on the sublimation and the expulsion of the sexual, of which the taboo of anal enjoyment is the symbol. He also argued that, consequently, there exists an unavoidable discontent for the human in society, a neurotic discontent caused by this renunciation. In August of 2021, after the United States withdrew its troops from Afghanistan, it was easy for many to condemn the oppression of women and sexual minorities perpetrated by the Taliban. In any case it, is a fact that where civil rights are gained, sexual minorities find themselves reckoning with the phantoms of the sexual in a new way, which positions them in front of unprecedented alternatives. The stigma of the sexual is always there, under the fascism of the Baby’s face, just as it was in the time of old Freud.
