The first to make the transition to a more scientific study of sexuality
- Human behaviour is motivated by Libido & Thanatos
o Libido is the existence of sexual needs in human beings and animals is expressed in
biology by the assumption of a sexual instinct, on the analogy of the instinct of
nutrition, that is of hunger. Everyday language possesses no counterpart to the w0rd
hunger but science makes use of the word libido for that purpose
o Libido therefore means the subjective experience of a physical need for sex
- Drive
o According to Freud, the libido is fuelled by the sexual instincts. An instinct arises
from a source within the body:
o Its source is a state of excitation in the body, its aim is the removal of that excitation.
o We picture it as a certain quota of energy which presses in a particular direction. It is
from this pressing that it derives its name of Trieb (drive, instinct)
o A constant force
, o An instinct is distinguished from a stimulus by the fact that it arises from sources of
stimulation within the body,,, that it operates as a constant force and that the
subject cannot avoid it by flight, as is possible with an external stimulus
- Drive model: you have seks bevause your instinct drives you, pushes you
- Freud’s stages of psycho-sexual development

o 3. Genital stage (12 years onwards)
- Mature female sexuality
o Sexual pleasure is transferred from the clitoris to the vagina
o A healthy woman experiences a vaginal orgasm
o If a woman only has a clitoral orgasm, this is a sign of fixation and intrapsychic
problems
