This thesis pretends a critical rereading of Freud s elaborations about motherhood in feminine psychosexual development. Based on feminist ideas of performativity and intersectionality, the question is to what extent the main concepts involved in Freudian theorizing, especially the Oedipus complex,
contribute to a normative view of motherhood. For this, a historical contextualization is presented in order to problematize the naturalization of the maternal role for women. Subsequently, a metapsychological study of the Freudian theory on the development of femininity is undertaken, through the understanding
of the Oedipus complex, castration complex and penis envy, we conclude that, for Freud, motherhood is located as a compensation for the phallic lack, considered fundamental to the female psychic maturation. We criticize this theory for the universalization of a phallocentric, white, bourgeois, north-western narrative that disregards the multiple possibilities of female subjectivation in different racial, social and ethnic contexts. Through the Freudian theory itself, it is proposed that maternity be approached in order to consider the anarchic and creative aspect of the drive, not conformed, a priori, to any privileged path, thus delinking it from the imperative character of the binary constitution of gender, as well as deidealizing the ways of mothering, when they present themselves.
