In these two small clinical working groups we will follow the themes of the main lecture looking at sexual difference, sexual objects, the structure of the family vs couple, as it appears in session. On the first evening, cases will be presented by Kelly Merklin focusing in on the question of sexual objects and bodily products from urine, to feces, semen, discharge, and, yes, babies too. On the second evening we will tackle the delicate question of incest, female perversion, taboo and deviance, with a case presented by Eliana Calligaris. We invite the participating clinicians to bring their questions and cases to the discussion.
