Abandonment of Female Creation = Oedipal Issues Solved

Victor destroys his female creation as it nears completion in a brutal fashion. He tears it limb from limb, mangling and distorting it even further than it already appeared. He says he cannot bear the responsibility of possibly creating something that the current creation will be able to join forces with and dominate the world. In actuality, Victor has resolved his Oedipal issues. This female creation embodies the final remnants of his Oedipal lust for his mother and his desire to bring her back to life in order to be with her. When he resolves his Oedipal issues, he destroys this creation-in-progress, as it was a representation of his mother in a subconscious, grizzly form.
