Template:Edit semi-protected Removal of the term sex organ. The clitoris is NOT an organ. It is like a nipple or urethra. It is a raised region of nerve endings that cause sexual arousal when stimulated. Even check Wikipedia sex organ definition. This is NOT an organ, as in heart, stomach, lungs. It is a feature of the vulva with the function of sexual arousal & pleasure. Wikipedia should not be this bad. Fix this ! RoseEatsRice (talk) 23:54, 24 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

File:Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: here's a source that describes it as a sex organ. M.Bitton (talk) 00:19, 25 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
Template:Ping The clitoris is uniquely involved in arousal & orgasm, characteristics of a secondary sex organ. As per your statement Template:Tq, in the MOS:LEAD of sex organ it states that Template:Tq That article also states Template:Tq
In the vulva article, the lead states Template:Tq
I have added bold to certain terms & italics for emphasis so that you may better understand. To state that the Template:!tq is an obviously inaccurate claim. Peaceray (talk) 20:50, 25 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
The logic for maintaining the status quo does not follow. Your argument summarizes:
"The clitoris is part of the vulva, and the vulva is a sex organ, therefore the clitoris is a sex organ."
That's akin to saying "A wheel is part of a car, and a car is a vehicle, therefore a wheel is a vehicle."
Which is silly.
You also referred to the clitoris as a "secondary sex organ". If there exists a well-sourced definition of "secondary sex organ" that includes the clitoris then the wording should change to clearly say "secondary sex organ", not "sex organ", linked as appropriate.
An edit is warranted in either case. 24.137.93.163 (talk) 20:10, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
