“Once she is confronted with one-night stands without ..objet a, ..one-night stands will ..become meaningless.”
- SLAVOJ ZIZEK on objet a as the thing that makes something more special, in this case it is the bad feelings after a one night stand that incite to have more one night stands. The pleasure she likes and dislikes in seeking one night stands is, in her case, caused by thinking of casual sex as something one should not do. This perceived prohibition is objet a in this case. The forbidden is the condition of pleasure being possible. http://alterities.tumblr.com/post/119165760696
