The Oedipus conflict remains a pivot of Freudian psychoanalysis. In the psychic event referred to, the difference is established, both at the level of gender and at the level of generations, as well as ambiguity, two aspects that appear to be indispensable for the conformation of the psychological structure. However, in many cases, this triangulation is linked to gender differences and social and biological relationships that do not resist an analysis of the present, which seems to imply a question of its validity and actuality. The possibilities of a structural oedipal model beyond heteronormativity and the limitations derived from the historical conditions of its formulation and reception are explored.
