Is it true that infant have sexual desires as Sigmund Freud suggest in his theory of psych sexual theory?
Answer:
hell no
I'm an infant, so I can assure you that's true.
yes. they start to discover and then they experiment and once they find that something feels good, they will keep doing it until it becomes a habit.
I'm not sure . But somethings which Freud suggested were not all true . But its very hard to know this ? sorry
(In a german accent) Sounds like a classic case of tranference to me!
Seriously, how can they when they aren't even aware of the concept yet?
Honestly, the more I read about Freud, the more I think he had some serious issues. I know he was brilliant but I think he was equally screwed up!
Well, I think just because someone isn't aware of a concept doesn't mean they can't feel it. It's not about infants having the desire to have sex with a man or woman, it's about them having impulses which we know to be sexual.
It's an interesting theory, I guess it just depends how early on these types of physical feeling are present.
I would say infants have a will for pleasure. Sexual? I doubt it.
Infants in the womb massage their genitles and enjoy it. As a child gets older and begins to revisit this act simply tell them to keep it private. The womb was private til someone put a freakin camera in there.
Infants are lay-outed for all normal human functions. Therefore you may see baby-boys having erections. The sexual potentiality is there but there will go many many years before it may become effective, but in babies I would call it sexual instinct instead of sexual desire, because instinct may be present even in an absolutely non-mature way while sexual desire involves the active will for real and mature intercourse.
So, we may say that the sexual instinct is more or less visibly present in babies, while the sexual desire is a matter for grown-up people, those who are ready to embark in mature and possibly fertile sexual intercourses.
It depends on how you define sexual desires. I believe he would say that they find pleasure in stimulating their erogenous zones. Ever see a little kid with his/her hands down their pants? It feels good. Do they have intercourse or sex on their mind as adults do? No, they're simply experiencing pleasure. Keep in mind Freud's theories are just that, theories. They are used to guide us in understanding behavior.
