The genital stage in psychoanalysis is the term used by Sigmund Freud to describe the final stage of human psychosexual development. The individual develops a strong sexual interest in people outside of the family. The genital stage is the fifth of the five Freudian psychosexual development stages: the oral, the anal, the phallic, the latent, and the genital.
