 Dr. van Frans, we said earlier that a man with a mother complex fantasizes on an ideal woman who will fulfill his fantasies, gratify all his infantile desires. He wants a girl just like the girl that married your old dad. How does that mother complex affect his personal relationships with a woman? When a man has a mother complex, he's generally a split animal. Namely, on one side, his feminine side is, he worships the feminine image too much. It's a kind of virgin Mary or feminine Holy Ghost figure, the pure, wonderful woman, so to speak. And the other is the prostitute with whom he has sex, but whom he thoroughly despises. This kind of split in the animal between the virgin Mary and the prostitute is typical for the mother complex. And such men then, if they have to approach a woman, they don't know how to do it, because the one here, they admire too much, she's too pure, you can stretch out your hand and touch her. And the other is easily conquered, but no partner really, just something to have sex with. And such men have also in their own way trouble to relate to women because of that split animal situation. Is promiscuity in a male connected with the split? I think the promiscuity has to do with something else. It's simply that the conventional Christian barriers have been pulled down and the young generation now is experimenting with sex all over the place. And you meet among those men and young women who are promiscuous, all sorts of constellations, father complex, father complex, all sorts of, it's a more general factor. It's experimenting nowadays because the Christian barriers against sex have been pulled down. But then in the individual case, such a man would, for instance, date a girl who has a huge father complex therefore unapproachable or a Rapunzel who is unapproachable in a tower and always hesitate to go closer to her or would even try to go to bed with her and not succeed. And he would still be attached to that girl and have cheap sexual affairs on the other side which do not satisfy him. That would be the situation in such a man.
