Marked by Freudian productions, the analytic literature and yet, more specifically those influenced by lacanian teachings, do not cease to demonstrate that the anatomic considerations are not indexes to speak of the differences of sexual identity between men and women. Given the fact that the male characteristics remain in normal female adults, Freud responds that being a woman is the same as being a mother. The oscillation of the truth regarding this equation can be observed in a variety of situations in which we can see women, mothers, carrying out the roles normally charged to men. How can one understand such a fact? This study allows us to show the male-female link in considering the case of one woman with all female characteristics considered to be normal, and also to discuss the questions related to phalic-bliss (jouissance phallique) and the question of the Other bliss (jouissance de l'Autre), proposed by Lacan as indexes of differentiation of the masculine and feminine positions.
