[The image of women in a therapy group of alcoholics and neurotics]

We show a certain image of the woman as she is seen and "said" in a group of female and male neurotics and alcoolic patients. We relate the remarks that these patients are expressing and we completed our analysis with two questionnaires; the first one presents about 50 (fifty) concepts which usually qualifie the woman; the other one interrogates the social function of the woman. The image that the group gives us is either an image, or the image of "dangerous and feline animal". Buth the principal image is this of a devaluated, inferiore, human being, or on the contrary, she is seen as dangerous, phallic and "castrative".
