    The title of my presentation is Girls Gone Wild:From Freud to Andrea Dworkin and what I did was anaylze Freud’s ideal of sexuality and penis envy and Andrea Dworkins theory of intercourse, and realted them to the linear spectrum of sexual politics. What I wanted to portray is that although Freud and Dworkin have contrasting views on sexuality and intercourse, their ideals play a role in the incestuous sexual politics of modern day society, especially with this rise in the new raunch culture of women. In response to the new rise, Freud may say that it is okay for women to act this way, because of “penis envy”, every women wants a penis because it represents power. In conclusion I found that Freud and Dworkin carried the same ideal of sexual politics it is a mechanical pattern of sexual relations, which revovles around male erection, male penetration, and male orgasm. And with this common theme found throughtout their work they conceputualize the framework involving the state and sexual politics.
