Emergent coding methods were utilized (Cohen\u2019s kappa range = .78\u2013.88), and eight distinct thematic categories were identified: rigid dietary practices (26.2%), rigid exercise rules (18.4%), the broader benefits of muscularity (16.1%), the encouragement of the drive for size (15.9%), the labeling of the non-ideal body (11.4%), marginalizing other areas of life (6.1%), muscle enhancing substances (3.3%), and minimizing medical risk (2.6%).

Psychoanalysis has historically privileged the phallic symbol, while keeping a feminine one obscured and unnamed. It is only by recognizing the sexual \u201csomethingness\u201d of vaginal space that we appreciate how vital it is to phallic potency, both metaphorically and actually. True personal agency and true phallic achievement, as with all of cultural and symbolic life, are predicated on a spatial foundation both real and metaphorical. An (in)ability to face the ultimate carnality of sexual symbols and to explicitly signify the female genital has consequences for free association as an encounter between the known and the novel, and for democratic free speech in the public sphere.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Link:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/00107530.2016.1101563\">http:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/00107530.2016.1101563<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Between the Familiar and the Stranger: Attachment Security, Mutual Desire, and Reclaimed Love<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>The<\/em> <em>International Journal of Psychoanalytic Self Psychology,\u00a0Vol. 11, No. 3, 2016.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This essay explores the idea that relationships of attachment security are simultaneously relationships of mutual desire. Seen through this lens, separation and reunion behavior become increasingly psychologically charged: infant and mother, as well as patient and analyst, must revisit their willingness to expose their desire in each encounter. By recognizing that personal agency is vital to both healthy attachment and romantic desire, we can begin to appreciate the dawning of romantic desire not so much as promoting \u201cseparation-individuation\u201d as often conceived, but as exerting a gravitational pull to revisit an original love, one that is now erotically reconceived.

My discussants, Ringstrom and Slavin, both affirm this quest, joining in articulating a dialectical conception of how attachment and desire, relationship and drive, mutually constitute each other. Ringstrom elaborates my thesis particularly in relation to his own signature theorizing on couples\u2019 treatment, and calls attention to the conundrum of insistent demand and the \u201cPandora\u2019s box\u201d of mutuality of desire. Slavin contextualizes my call within a larger existential framework, linking exploratory probings to mortal terrors. Both discussants highlight how high the stakes are in any genuine encounter between the known and the still unknown. Yet, by encompassing the erotics of the Oedipal triangle and its dialectics of the familiar-stranger, a more robust conception of attachment security emerges situated in a third space between drive and attachment, existential dread and relational connection, and desire and reunion, even as we discover their inextricable union.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Link:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/15551024.2016.1178043?journalCode=hpsp20\">http:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/15551024.2016.1178043?journalCode=hpsp20<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Naming the Vagina, Naming the Woman<\/strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/h2>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Division\/Review,\u00a0No. 14, Spring 2016.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In this essay, I explore acts of\u00a0<em>naming,<\/em>\u00a0their fundamental status for psychoanalysis, and the powerful effect that naming a hidden body part can have.

Its essential validity for a symbolic species is inherent in its design. In this profound mechanism, psychoanalysis\u2019s contributions to the democratic dream of shared, equal, and inclusive speech are real. Both psychoanalysis and democracy find mutual resonance, sustenance, and relevance in their signature practices, free association and free speech. But one point of departure is most intriguing: While psychoanalysis struggles to remain relevant to the culture at large, democracy\u2019s survival (despite sometimes striking bruises) seems assured; it claims an enduring relevance and comparative advantage over other forms of government. The sheer survival of the word \u201cdemocracy\u201d as a master signifier signifies its semiotic ascendancy, which both results from and validates (free) speech\u2019s democratizing action. Speech, as psychoanalysis reveals, illuminates the contagious, reverberating, and transformational flow of desire and its symbols.

It wasn\u2019t only the unconscious that compelled his attention, but also the peculiar signage of unconscious terrain. He named this signage \u201cinfantile sexuality\u201d and he recognized it as both utterly normal and utterly perverse. But how was the infant\u2019s sexuality to be revealed? Infants, by definition, are without language (<em>in-fantem<\/em>). What Freud intuited early on was the need for a space of speech and the power of an enlightened speaking subject. He glimpsed but never realized the power of psychoanalysis to grant human beings their natural and inalienable rights to own their sexuality, libido, and free speech privilege.
