Horney's Psychoanalytic Theory

Freud

Horney's criticisms on Freud's perspective included: that it was too rigid towards new ideas; it had an unfair view of the feminine psyche; and it overemphasizes biological causes of differences. She also said that "penis envy" did occur in some women, but it is jealousy of a man's privilege society rather than his penis itself.
