genitality

  1. Noun.  In psychoanalytic theory, the part of sexuality that relates to the genitalia.
  2. Noun.  In Reichian psychoanalysis, the integrated function of the entire sexual apparatus; as opposed to pregenitality, neurosis. Note that in this use, sexuality oriented on the genitalia may not by itself constitute genitality, i.e. phallicism would be considered a pregenitally functioning sexuality.
  3. Noun.  The ability to attain erotic sensation in the genitalia.
