clitoris

The clitoris is the female sexual organ: it's a woman's equivalent of the penis.

For men, sex is all about the penis, but for women, stimulating the clitoris is how they feel good sexually. Only girls and women have a clitoris. One good way to remember the word clitoris is an old episode of Seinfeld in which Jerry dates a woman whose name rhymes with a part of a woman's body: her name wasn't Mulva, it was Delores.
