« In an article on San-Pauli, Hamburg's hot district, published in Stern magazine on June 8, 1878, I noted the following sentence; "You feel the male dream, as seductive as it is absurd, of being cajoled by women as an infant, while reigning over them like a pasha."

How could impulse desires and conflicts be experienced, if feelings are absent? What do they mean without anger, jealousy, love, feelings of abandonment and loneliness? »
