Unsorted
Sigmund Freud
In the phallic phase, the genitals become the focus of sexual stimulation. In infantile sexuality, "only one genital, namely the male one, comes into account. What is present, therefore, is not the primacy of the genitals, but the primacy of the phallus.[1]
It is the presence or absence of the penis that forces the child to recognize that boys and girls are different.
