'Scientists have discovered that snakes do have clitorises, shattering a long-held assumption that the females didn't have a sexual organ.

Research published [on] Wednesday provides the first proper anatomical descriptions of female snake genitalia.

Snake penises - hemipenes - have been studied for decades. They are forked and some are embedded with spikes.

But the female sex organ had been "overlooked in comparison", researchers said.

It wasn't necessarily that it was elusive - rather, scientists weren't really looking for it.'

Well, that is surprising to hear, isn't it?

Surely it should be Clitterati? Perhaps that's just for 'special' people.

Something to bring up if the conversation starts to flag round the Christmas dinner table.🐍

These male mating behaviours could provide female sensory stimulation that may elicit female receptivity.

Well, those lucky lucky lady snakes 🐍

Hilarious.

It's true, though, that scientists haven't paid much attention to the clitoris.

I only recently saw articles which show images of the whole human female clitoris, and thought that it looks a bit like a dog sitting, with only its snout visible from the outside. Earlier only that snout was discussed and how to pet it.

That most of the clitoris is hidden from sight actually explains all those debates about whether the G-spot exists or not. It's the backside of the clitoris or the bum of the doggie. Petting that is good, too.

🤣😂 sorry this has really got me giggling especially "scientists not being able to find it"

I'm assuming all of the scientists were men!
