Transgender Psychoanalysis: A Lacanian Perspective on Sexual Difference · Patricia Gherovici · p.131
**THAT OBSCURE OBJECT**
Theoretical move: The passage uses Schreber's transsexual delusion—its simultaneous preoccupation with beauty, feminine jouissance, and excremental voluptuousness—to argue that Lacan's objet petit a (as object-cause of desire) is the theoretical instrument needed to account for the libidinal interchangeability of feces/baby/penis that Freud detected but could not fully theorize through drive objects alone.
Deleuze and Guattari affirm that Schreber was Freud's transsexual... He is transsexual. He is trans-alivedead, trans-parent child.
