"[[castration complex]]" ([[Fr]]. ''[[complexe de castration]]'')
==Dictionary==
The psychoanalytic definition of castration is rooted in the act feared by male children, namely, the removal of the penis.
In psychoanalysis, the [[castration complex]] (along with the [[Oedipus complex]]) is a major organizing principle of psychosexuality (and, more broadly speaking, of mental life in general).
