Glans

In male human anatomy, the glans penis (or simply glans, main) OED 2nd edition, 1989.

The glans is anatomically homologous to the clitoral glans of the human female.

The names indicated that each description of the structures was about the body and glans of the clitoris, but usually the glans.

There is considerable variation in how much of the glans protrudes from the hood and how much is covered by it, ranging from completely covered to fully exposed, and tissue of the labia minora also encircles the base of the glans.

They state that the clitoral glans and labia minora have blood vessels that are dispersed within a fibrous matrix and have only a minimal amount of smooth muscle, or that the clitoral glans is "a midline, densely neural, non-erectile structure".

Type IIa is removal of the inner labia; IIb, removal of the clitoral glans and inner labia; and IIc, removal of the clitoral glans, inner and outer labia.

Donna Kennedy-Glans is active in the energy business and a multi-generational family farm.

Kennedy-Glans explained how the group processes suggestions.

While the clitoris made a comeback in later editions, only the part you can see – the glans – was noted.

A 1992 study gives clitoral glans widths of convert, with the average size smaller than a pencil-top eraser.

At the summit of the glans is the slit-like vertical external urethral orifice.

Direct clitoral stimulation involves physical stimulation to the external anatomy of the clitoris – glans, hood and the external shaft.

Ending at the glans of the clitoris, the tip of the body bends anteriorly away from the pubis.

Glans morphology was different in appearance in both sexes, being wide and blunt in the female and tapered in the male".

Hooper and Musser, 1964, table 1 In Thomasomys ucucha the glans penis is rounded, short, and small and is superficially divided into left and right halves by a trough at the top and a ridge at the bottom.

In China, glans condoms may have been made of oiled silk paper, or of lamb intestines.

It allows two-way shifting of the clitoral hood: firstly, it can extend to let the hood be moved upwards to expose the glans for stimulation or hygienic cleansing, and, secondly. it contracts to pull the hood back to protect it.

Most of the glans is covered with spines, except for an area near the tip.

Pheomelanins are particularly concentrated in the lips, nipples, glans of the penis, and vagina.

Problems with this technique include loss of sensation, sexual function, and sloughing of the glans.
