La demande transsexuelle : quels mécanismes ?

We may suppose that, in first phase, the transsexual, submitted to fear of castration, could not master it and thus finds himself always yielding to it. To end this apprehension, it will confront it actively by asking for the ablation of his/her genitals. The second step is to convert this performed castration by acquisition of an organ "in place" and not only "instead of", as an active conquest in comparison with the very only lack of penis. The counter-pbobic hypothesis does not pretend to find the aetiology of transsexualism but tries to explain its process and/or describe its conditions.
