The clitoris (/ˈklɪtərɨs/ or /klɨˈtɔərɨs/) is a female sex organ present in mammals ostriches and a limited number of other animals. In humans the visible button-like portion is near the front junction of the labia minora (inner lips) above the opening of the urethra. Unlike the penis the male homologue (male equivalent) to the clitoris it usually does not contain the distal portion (or opening) of the urethra and is therefore not used for urination.
