In this society, the norm of masculinity is phallic aggression. Male sexuality is, by definition, intensely and rigidly phallic. A man's identity is located in his conception of himself as the possessor of a phallus; a man's worth is located in his pride in phallic identity.

Since men have no other criteria for worth, no other notion of identity, those who do not have phalluses are not recognized as fully human.
