Following the presentation of her paper, “The Misogynistic Introject,” the author engages with participants in a question-and-answer discussion that examines the place of misogyny in contemporary psychoanalytic theory, clinical practice, and training. The dialogue considers how misogynistic fantasies, affects, and institutional norms may be reproduced or challenged within analytic settings and within the wider social field. Particular attention is given to how misogyny may be implicated in the structuring of individual subjectivity and in the transmission of psychoanalytic ideas. The participants explore potential directions for revising psychoanalytic education and practice, including the use of alternative source materials, modifications in training methods, and approaches to fostering greater awareness of gendered dynamics in the analytic relationship. The discussion aims to open a space for ongoing inquiry into misogyny as a central, rather than peripheral, concern for psychoanalysis.
