What are the parallel structures in the uncircumcised penis and vagina?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Penis & clitoris: No parallels between penis & vagina other than both are sexual structires. Clitoris, located above vagina & urinary opening is like a mini penis. Both have a glans or head and both have a foreskin. Foreskin in a normal uncircumcised male is circumferential around the glans, whereas it is hooded over the glans clitoris & not circumferentail.
