Del deseo en las mujeres. Respuestas de las mujeres frente a la falta.
Abstract
This paper aims to present the findings of the research called “On Desire in Women” and to explain the method used and the investigative pathway that took place which was carried out from Freud's theory and Lacan's teaching. Additionally, it aims to present a summary of the theoretical aspects that allowed the approach to the general issue of this work, which is to elucidate what characterizes the relationship of women with desire and to address some of the women's responses to the lack entailed in desire and that are part of the conclusions obtained. In order to discover these responses, it was necessary to delve into psychoanalytic notions and concepts such as castration, phallus, and lack in relation to women. They are developed in the research process that allows to conclude different women's responses, and specifically love as the feminine response par excellence.
