  1. phallic phase

    The phallic phase is a term used in Freudian psychoanalysis to describe a stage of a child's development, typically occurring between the ages of three and six, during which the child becomes aware of their own genitalia and begins to recognize the physical differences between males and females. During this stage, children also develop unconscious sexual desires towards their opposite-sex parent, known as the Oedipus complex in boys and Electra complex in girls. The resolution or navigation of these complexes is considered critical in forming mature sexual preferences and behaviors.
