Anal Character
This term is an extension of Freudʼs anal stage of development (you remember Freudʼs stages of development, right?) in which a person develops a specific type of a personality that stems from unresolved conflicts during the anal stage of psychosexual development. A person with an anal character typically shows traits such as excessive neatness and orderliness, stinginess, and an inability to be flexible.
