clitoris

Female erectile organ

The clitoris is a small, sensitive organ at the front of the vulva, above the vaginal opening.

Though only a small portion is externally visible, most of its erectile tissue extends internally.

Its sole function is sexual pleasure—the clitoris has more nerve endings than any other part of the human body.

clitoral stimulation, clitoral orgasm.
