The Anal Drive and its Connection to the Scopic

This chapter explores Lacan's views on the anal drive and its relationship to potty training. It delves into the connection between the anal and scopic drives, discussing the concept of 'shit' as a proto a and the transition from the phallic stage to the gaze as a proper a. The chapter also touches on the importance of the scopic drive in visual culture and its association with social media platforms.
