* CoolBigSis: The Old Snatch for Miss Cooter, bordering on being a BigBrotherMentor.



* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler: Big T after seeing the genuine connection between Joey and Dick.]]



* SingleTargetSexuality: Once a body part finds a match with another it is very hard for them to get with someone else. Dick can't get with anyone but Miss Cooter, Flopsy can't get with anyone but Rick's dick, and The Old Snatch falls for [[spoiler: Big T]] and all the sex she had after turned her into a nasty, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin old snatch]].

* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: The show lands in the middle, leaning towards idealism. Some of the body parts, like the pussies and the lost dicks, are cynical about love. Other parts, like Joey's Heart, are too idealistic about love. It's the genuine love Dick shares with both Miss Cooter and Joey that inspires the Old Snatch, Flopsy and Big T to let go of their bitterness. In the end, Joey learns that neither just listening to his heart or just his dick will bring him happiness; all of them need to work together for love to survive.

** Even more so with Sally's heart, who is introduced abruptly and spoken about as if Sally has been listening to her the whole time. After she's introduced she never leaves Sally's side again.

** TheHecateSisters: The main three vaginas with Miss Cooter as the Maiden, Flopsy as the Mother, and the Old Snatch as the Crone.



* VisualPun: Many of the vaginas, characterised as fancily-dressed women, are seen sporting pearl necklaces. See also VirginityFlag, above.

The subplots are about the various body parts' development; the penises (mainly Dick and Big T) learn to care about relationships beyond just having sex, Heart learns to tone down his romantic notions into something more sensible and the vaginas learn to let go of their cynicism about men and penises, with the Old Snatch in particular realizing she deserves better than how [[FlatCharacter Tiffany]] lets men treat her.

* ArtisticLicenseMedicine: A standard "sex change operation" doesn't ''remove'' a penis, it's plastic surgery to turn a penis into a vagina (something that would likely be a big deal in this fantasy world but is never brought up). Then again, all of the Lost Dicks are {{Unreliable Narrator}}s about their pasts.

From Creator/TeamStarKid, the creators of ''Theatre/AVeryPotterMusical'' and ''WebVideo/LittleWhiteLie'', ''Me and My Dick'' is about a boy, Joey Richter and his dick, Dick. Joey apparently lives in a Universe where people can talk to their body parts, and naturally as a teenaged boy he mainly listens to his Dick. Joey pines for Vanessa, the most beautiful Jewish girl at his school, while [[ObliviousToLove not noticing that his best friend Sally is head over heels for him]]. Things seem to be looking up for him when Vanessa breaks up with her long-time boyfriend and invites him over to her house to ''"study."'' However, when he gives Sally a tight hug, Dick is introduced to Sally's Miss Cooter and it's LoveAtFirstSight. Now Dick can't get it up for anyone but Miss Cooter and it puts Joey in a rough patch.
