our patient "A", and in the patiens of Fenichel, of Berman (12) and of Karpman.
A reveraal of parental roles (i... an aggressive mother and a submissive father) may sometimes lead to the identification with the wrong parent. This occur- red to Frank (9), whose father, a weakling and alcohol- ic, was mostly absent, and whose mother was energetic and "masculine in appearance and dress". A similar family situation existed in the patient of Deutsch (25) "His mother was a dominant person; his father a lenient type. Mother made all the decisions and liked him best when he was submissive". hus this man could keep his mother's love only by "feminine qualities", which event- ually led to his female identification and transvestism.
