As the regression deepened, her Oedipal fantasies faded into the background and she engaged in much projection and introjection. She was continually preoccupied with her lactating breasts, which were a source of pride and pleasure to her. Daily she expressed the milk, noting its color, consistency, and taste … She also thought that in order to grow big and have a baby inside her, she must eat a great deal and not allow feces or urine to escape (a conjecture that had contributed to her moderate obesity); any act of elimination was accompanied by intense anxiety and with-holding.35

The focus on the infantile is reflected in further case studies in the age of AIDS, where perhaps a more subtle understanding of ethnicity and its reading in American culture could have been undertaken.
