The famous French psychoanalyst Jean Lacan, in his famous seminar "More", will say the words that are still quoted when it comes to women, and which still cause the reader an ambiguous understanding: "Women do not exist", and also speaks about something else, in contrast to men, "female (other) pleasure." Thus, once again emphasizing the helplessness of anyone who tries to touch the topic of women, femininity, femininity. In 1926, in The Question of Amateur Analysis, Z. Freud writes: “… the life of an adult woman for psychoanalysis is a dark continent, a dark continent, an unknown land - terra incognita”.
Over the past decade, modern women are often said to be “a man” or “a commander in a skirt,” “a courageous woman,” “self-sufficient from the cradle”? Often used are such symbolic phrases as “independent from childhood,” “omnipotent,” “rushes like a rocket,” “achieves everything like a hammer,” “super-active,” “won't lie down on the floor and let it pass by itself,” “a woman disagreement ?

1) bodily distress (various pains, discomfort in the body, sleep disturbances, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and / or bladder syndrome, chronic cystitis, difficulty getting pregnant, etc.);
2) difficulties in building romantic relationships;
3) an alarming spectrum of states (streams of negative thoughts, hypermobilization, “do something” mode, life on “autopilot”);
4) sexual problems (hypoactive sexual desire, sexual burnout, “fifty shades of gray” syndrome). Mental health professionals and the woman herself and her loved ones are faced with the question of what to do about it?

Pierre Marty - A. I. Korotetskoy's book is unique in its content, as well as structuredness and a truly scientific approach to describing a woman of a “new type”, explaining, in addition, one of the main conceptual approaches to the Feminine - the so-called “work of the Feminine”. The work that the psyche has to do to integrate and accept the characteristics of female functioning in a narrow sense and gender difference in a broad one.
