roseandivy commented on the word phallacy
I think this word is about literary critics' (and college English teachers') unfortunate habit of overusing the word and notion of "phallic." Freud might have something to say about some literary critics' obsession with sexualizing literature. then again, he might need to diagnose his own obsession.
