Moscovitz discusses Freud's 'omission' of interpretations to Dora concerning her homosexual conflicts. He notes that Freud was not unaware of Dora's conflicts about homosexuality and that the case history has a long discussion of the 'gynaecophilia of hysterics'. The author considers the frequent linkage of three aspects of hysteria: homosexuality, transference, and the interruption of therapy. He claims that Dora's homosexuality did not appear as an isolated trait nor as a symptom, but was deeply involved in the transference to Freud. However, he questions whether an interpretation concerning homosexuality would have helped the analysis and suggests that Freud dealt appropriately with the manifest material. The homosexual conflict would have been dealt with later in Dora's analysis. But it might have been helpful for Freud to have been more aware of femininity and passivity, whether in the patient or in the analyst.
