The purpose of this research is to review different ways of approaching and talking about sexuality. The first part presents a phenomenological approach to understanding sexuality, especially from a woman's perspective. It presents her specific placement in society, due to which she has been, since childhood, faced with fears and problems unfamiliar to men. The next part of the research focuses on Freud’s development of sexual theory, which presents the beginnings of speaking about sexuality publicly. In essence, Freud’s sexual theory primarily represents the sexual development of a man, a woman is treated as an ambiguity or a problem. It also observes a number of behavioural deviations, perversions, and fetishes that can potentially lead to pathology. The last part of the research highlights the scientific nature of discourse on sexuality, which prevails in our region. Despite attempts to talk about sexuality, the confessional nature of speech has been preserved, which is mainly performed by therapists who systematically list and classify any deviation. Male and female sexuality are thus confined by social norms and the scientific nature of discourse, which hinders the liberation and development of sexual behaviours.
