Abstract: This paper aims to investigate, from a concrete psychoanalytic standpoint, the collective imaginary that female undergraduate students share in terms of working the double shift of having a career and a household to run. This is qualitative research based on the psychoanalytical method and is carried out via a collective psychological interview and The Thematic Drawing-and-Story Procedure. The material allowed for the interpretation of an affective-emotional field named “My money, my comfort, my leisure”. The prevalence of this field does not allow for the imagination needed to value other life projects, such as having a personal and/or socially significant professional work and establishing a family. The overall framework demonstrates that the participants imagine that it is possible to escape from the double shift by avoiding financial dependency, one of the most important means of female oppression and cultivating positions to satisfy their own needs.
