Abstract
- An interview with French philosopher Michel Foucault is presented. When asked about the reason of misconception on the first volume of his book "The History of Sexuality," he mentions that its misunderstanding starts with the author who could likely use overdetermined notions on repression. Foucault points out the necessity to fight the notion of homosexuality. He also notes that the prohibition of masturbation initiates restriction related to sexuality.
