Not all men feel rivalry with their fathers to vie for love of their mothers. In some families mother becomes central figure for her son. A silent pact between mother and son leads to denial of differences, specifically between gender and generation. The author calls this mother-son bond, from which aggression has been banned symbiotic illusion.
