The Penis and Clitoris...


"We are one of the few mammals with a fleshy penis lacking a bony support, which means that the mind “complex beast it is” is integral to our capacity to copulate. On the other side of the gender coin, the clitoris seems to be the only organ designed for pleasure alone. It contains more nerve endings than any other corner in the body. It is at the same time ancillary, inessential and spectacular. Its presence in our species is noteworthy. Perhaps most striking: orgasm. It does not seem that anything that has ever graced Gods green earth has ever experienced the height and duration of orgasmic experience as we humans."

....

"With more than 8,000 nerve endings, the human clitoris is unparalleled among mammalian morphologies. Biologists contest it is the only portion of the human form designed for pleasure alone. Male orgasmic ejaculation is compulsory for fertilisation to occur through the old-fashioned mode of reproduction, but female orgasm is not required for ovum to meet sperm. The clitoris is both ancillary and spectacular. Anatomists, evolutionary biologists, psychiatrists and the man on the street alike have all (let’s hope) taken note that the clitoris is of biological significance. That the very existence of such a remarkable organ could have merited any form of empirical investigation is striking, from both a cultural as well as scientific standpoint. How could anyone in possession of one, or partnered to someone with one, be unaware of its location or importance?"
