The 'Hysteric' and the 'Pervert' one questions what the other wants, the other 'knows' wat the other wants

tHE TASK is to detach  naming 'hysteric' 'pervert' from their metaphoric ground (a homosexual is not necessarily a psychoanalytic “pervert,” a “hysteric” does not have to be a biological woman, etc.). 

Throughout Žižek’s work, the term “perversion” has a negative valence, (intrinsic value) whereas the “hysterical” (or “feminine”) position is highly valorized. 

The hysteric’s relationship to the Other (the symbolic order, the law) is one of perpetual questioning, attempting to discover what it is that the Other wants. 

By contrast, the pervert believes he immediately knows what the Other wants and directly delivers it. 

Thus, the hysterical position opens up the possibility for change, whereas the pervert is essentially locked in place.
