"Man is an animal organism with (like others) an unmistakably 
bisexual disposition. The individual corresponds to a fusion of two 
symmetrical halves, of which, according to some investigators, one is 
purely male and the other female. It is equally possible that each 
half was originally hermaphrodite. Sex is a biological fact which, 
although it is of extraordinary importance in mental life, is hard to 
grasp psychologically. We are accustomed to say that every human 
being displays both male and female instinctual impulses, needs and 
attributes; but though anatomy, it is true, can point out the 
characteristic of maleness and femaleness, psychology cannot. For 
psychology the contrast between the sexes fades away into one between 
activity and passivity, in which we far too readily identify activity 
with maleness and passivity with femaleness, a view which is by no 
means universally confirmed in the animal kingdom." [Civilization and 
Its Discontents, Sigmund Freud, New York: Norton, 1961, p. 52n3.]
