BIG AREA: Ciências Humanas
AREA: Psicologia
SUMMARY:

The work is based on the pertinence of Freudian thought in Culture and its discontents, regarding human suffering and its modifications, starting from the premise that the enigma of life and sexuality stands out among the modes of malaise in contemporary culture. Thus, it was investigated how the malaise can be a result of the encounter with the intersex. A theoretical research in psychoanalysis was carried out, based on Freud and Lacan, and the object of investigation is the documentary Ni d'Ève ni d'Adam, une histoire intersexe, expanding the discussions from the narratives of intersex people. In the theoretical path taken, we initially returned to the malaise, considering the transformations of the current culture and focusing on the social demands related to sexuality, difference and sexual choice were discussed, starting from the initial infantile sexual theories in Freud, until the current discussions about sexuality, gender and sexuation. This theoretical foundation establishes the discussion presented according to the aspects that we have listed in the documentary. The results show intersex as an impasse in the 20th century. XXI, faced with the multiplicity of possible choices based on the enigma of life and sexuality, as it embodies the ambiguity of sexual difference. Of the dilemmas collected from the documentary, the following stand out: medical treatment, body discomfort, identification and positioning between (inter)sex and gender. Faced with the mutability of sex and gender today, each subject invents for himself a signifier that links him in this context. It is within this range of signifiers that the cultural invention of intersex is circumscribed, a self-nomination in an attempt to solve the enigma of sexuality.
