    Karen Horney

    Explanation:

    She disagrees, for Freud belived that a desire for sexual interaction between son and progenitor could rise with a rivalry of the same sex individual's parent.

    Karen believes there is no such conflict as seen by Freud in terms of sexuality, rather thinks that reworking the Freudian beliefs is necessary for there is no such jealousy rather anxiety is caused by disturbances in the relationships and interaction between parents and child that leads to these Oedipal complex.

    For Karen cultural and structure of society made women less prone to certain behaviors and she stands against views that view women as inferior merely based on biology.

    She believes that rather cultural factors inhibit that women can expand and develop their fully sexual and intellectual potential.

    The rivalry arises since other disturbances present and little have to do with the sexual issues, further writings will make her criticize the patriarchal views on society that make women live in a state less equal.
