Answer 1

Answer:

The complete question is

Freud assumed that what was male was "normal" and that females were "inferior, castrated males."

Our answer is

True

Explanation:

Freud proposes that the boy and the girl begin, pre-Oedipally, having equal emotional position, attracted to the mother, and that the little girl is also a little man as the little girls are not distinct or sexually differentiated.

Freud stands on the concept of a single, masculine, libido: as its initial object is the mother and it's linked to masculinity and activity. He believes that there is no sexual classification or separation at the libido's most primordial phase. He further stated that a genital organization occurs after the Oedipal Complex which was derived in relation to castration as it is the final stage in sexual development. Thus, Freud stands on both children at infancy being ‘little men,’ with their desire construed via the process of a singular masculine libido.

Freud is of the belief that women are the inferior ‘castrated,’ males (lacking of a penis) and men are the normal one (who have penis).
