Assignment: Polymorphously perverse
In this assignment you are being asked to address the following question: Freud’s view was that normal sexual behavior in adults could develop only if many aspects of the child’s “polymorphously perverse” sexual predispositions were repressed. First, explain this statement in at least ¾ page and use concrete examples. Be sure to define within what “” means. Second, provide some alternative theoretical perspective on how else the development of healthy adult sexuality can be explained.
Use at least 3 sources (not including anything from your textbook or the Personality Reader). Remember, sources are not the same thing as resources.
Sources are academically credible journal articles or primary source books (not textbooks).
Resources are things like textbooks, Wikipedia, web pages, and magazine and newspaper articles. In this class, expect to use academically credible sources and to lose points when you use resources instead of sources.
