PHALLICISM — [Noun] The worship of the penis or phallus, especially in connection with fertility. From phallic (relating to the phallus) + -ism (denoting a practice or system). Unlike "priapism" (a medical condition of persistent erection) or "fertility cult" (a diffuse veneration of generative forces), phallicism is the deliberate, sacred elevation of masculine potency. It is the stone lingam glistening with oil in a temple courtyard, the ithyphallic Dionysus carved into a crumbling fresco, or the crude wooden effigy planted in a field to bless the harvest—an acknowledgment, both reverent and uneasy, of the raw force that seeds the world.
