HI, IM THE CLITORIS
I was only recognised as an organ in 1997
​
You can only see my head (aka glans clitoris) in real life. But I'm actually the size of a hand with 4 internal legs (aka crura & vestibular bulbs.)
​
Yes, I'm mostly inside the body, but that doesn't stop anyone knowing what the lungs look like.
I'VE HAD A TOUGH PAST
Today I'm ignored. In the past I was actively feared.
A large, visible clitoris was a sign of being a witch and was enough to merit death. People genuinely believed that it was where the devil sucked your soul out from.
Bikes were (and still are) designed to be more upright for women from fear of provoking an orgasm - (another sign that most people don’t know the first thing about them.)
BIGGER THAN YOU THINK
The tip of the glans clitoris is the only part of me you can see. I peek out the tip of the vulva.
​
My crura and vestibular bulbs are the size of fingers and head back towards my vagina. Sometimes they get close enough to touch it, but most of the time they don't (aka it's anatomically impossible for the majority of women to have an orgasm through penetrative sex alone.)
