Freud first thought that sexual desire and its energy are innate, and babies also have sexual desire, but the form of expression is different from that of adults. His theory of "baby's sexual characteristics" was immediately slammed by people, but he persisted and gradually gained the support of some scholars.

He believes that the awakening of sexual consciousness in adolescence, interest in the opposite sex and desire to combine with the opposite sex are the fixed patterns for sexual psychology to mature; But we can't deny or deny the existence of sexual desire just because the baby doesn't conform to this pattern. Freud also believes that with the development of age, the performance of sex and libido is also very different.
