Etymology

The term 'libido' was first introduced by Sigmund Freud in the context of psychoanalysis. He described libido as the energy of the sexual drive, which he believed was a key force behind human behavior. Over time, the concept of libido has evolved beyond Freud's original theories and is now commonly used in discussions about human sexuality and desire.
