Existența ca femeie, individual, în cuplu, în rol de mamă, de prietenă sau colegă are în fond această grijă și preocupare a propriului corp sau imagini corporale desprinsă din absența unei oglindiri în sinele patern.
“I know no woman – virgin, mother, le***an, married, celibate – whether she earns her keep as a housewife, a cocktail waitress, or a scanner of brain waves – for whom her body is not a fundamental problem: its clouded meaning, its fertility, its desire, its so-called frigidity, its bloody speech, its silences, its changes and mutilations, its rapes and ripenings”
(Adrienne Rich, 1976, Of Woman Born)--the Absent Father Effect on Daughters, Father Desire, Father Wounds - Susan E Schwartz
