psychoanalytical feminism

It is very difficult for me to accept psychoanalytical feminism as a legitimate explanation for gender differences. I do believe that people develop in different ways in different stages, but I don't think that this all revolves around the relationship with the mother. The concepts of oedipus complex and penis envy have, I think, been pretty throughly debunked and are not really accepted in the mainstream. Freud was on the right track by focusing on human development, but his focus on sex was over the top. I am glad that we discussed Freud's early work, focused on repression of women's sexual abuse. It is very interesting that he had to change his views because of his male colleagues who did not accept his research. I wish that Freud had continued to push his ideas, because he could have pushed a different conception of femininity.
