Artists

Explanation:

According to Freudian theory, a big amount of our behavior consists in the unconscious ideas and thoughts that we repress on our day-to-day lives and that can appear in lapsus or dreams, usually.

According to Freud, repression is an important part of our lives and it can lead to two outcomes: either we repressed our sexual desires and we become neurotic (because they stay in our psyche and they don't have a way out), or, on the other hand, we can repress them but sublimate them by transforming them and expressing them in constructive ways. Freud thought that the best way to do this would be by making art. Therefore, the person would become an artist and would deal with their repressed sexual desires in a better way.
