The Disappearing of Women Psychoanalytic Theorists by Men and Faux-Feminists

I welcome Inna Rozentsvit’s excellent article on the complex reasons for the marginalization and disappearance of women psychoanalysts, theorists, and therapists from the “canonical history of psychoanalysis.” She explains this as partly due to the patriarchal biases of their male colleagues, which were typical for their time—but also due to a different and less valued theoretical course charted by many women psychoanalytic theorists—that, in turn, might have been caused by neurobiological differences in the male and female brain.
