 From Wikipedia:

"In the psychology of Freud, the anal stage is said to follow the oral 
stage of infant/early-childhood development. This is a time when an 
infant's attention moves from oral stimulation to anal stimulation 
(usually the bowels but occasionally the bladder), usually synchronous 
with learning to control their excretory functions, a time of toilet 
training. Freud theorized that children who experience conflicts during 
this period of time may develop "anal" personality traits, namely those 
associated with a child's efforts at excretory control: orderliness, 
stubbornness, a compulsion for control, as well as a generalized 
interest in collecting, possessing, and retaining objects. Those whose 
anal characteristics continue into later life are said to be "anal 
retentive", or conversely, those who reject anal characteristics are 
said to have "anal expulsive" personality types. Some[who?] believe this 
to be a mild expression of obsessive-compulsive disorder or 
obsessive-compulsive personality disorder."
