A Freudian and Lacanian Reading of Sartre's Childhood According to the canonical Freud, a boy can reach sexual and social normalization (within the patriarchy) and avoid neurosis only if he has affronted the Oedipus complex, mat is, abandoned his sexual desire for his mother because of fear of castration by his father, and identified himself with him, thus consolidating his masculinity (Freud 1924, 229; Borch-Jacobsen, 300).

This paper discusses the broad strokes of liberal theory, feminism and universal rights. It covers opposing conservative arguments in which we review individual and social psychodynamics that we believe form the foundation for the tension between Liberalism and feminism and perhaps, more widely, Liberalism and Conservatism. It is within these discussions that we offer practical application of these posits in the form of our summary of precedent setting legal cases originating in Las Vegas and reported from Las Vegas. The cases are all united by the fact that they not only relate to Nevada, but that all, in one form or another, concern the matter of sexual difference. In our view they are also united in the manner in which they represent a perceived tension that arises in Liberalism as i...
