Forces and horses

"Horses are trained: humans impose upon the horse's instinctive forces that regulate the former, select, dominate, overcode them. The masochist effects an inversion of signs: the horse transmits its transmitted forces to him, so that the masochist's innate forces will in turn be tamed." (155-156)

Two series:

Horse: innate force, force transmitted by the human being

Masochist: force transmitted by the horse, innate force of human beings

See how the signs are inverted. The masochist plays out this inversion, constructing a new assemblage of between the lover-mistress and the horse-masochist in order to "give [him] the imprint of [her] body as [he has] never had it before and never would have had it otherwise." (ATP, 156)
