"I worked with Freud in Vienna. We broke over the concept of penis envy. Freud felt that it should be limited to women."
Woody Allen-Zelig (1983)
Adventures of a lifetime in gender politics
#penisenvy #Freud
Sigmund Freud coined the term to explain the psyche of the female of the species. If we are to take Freud literally then we should also note that men are equally prone to suffer the malady of "Penis Envy".
Come what may, if "Penis Envy" were engraved on a rock then that rock might, or might not, be considered the talisman of all misogynists.
On these pages I intend to carry that stone and enter the minefield of gender politics and hope for the best.

about Essex Girls and #MeToo ?

No Tory has ever dared suggest to my face that I should apply Norman Tebbit's Cricket Test to Mrs Monk.
