Basically this is how it works.. During the first trimester of pregnancy, a child has no real physical manifestation of their sex. They have the genetic code to be male or female, but the actual process of developing male genitals requires what's known in biology as a "testosterone wash". Basically the hypothalamus is triggered by genetic predetermination to start producing excessive amounts of testosterone at around three months into the pregnancy. Once this occurs, the fetus's genitals begin to develop into male genitals. The penis itself is simply an overdevelopment of the clitoris stimulated by hormones.
Therefore, it's not all that surprising at all that this woman's clit looks like a penis, because well, it is. In fact, there are women on record as having 8 inch or longer clits.
Direct quote from the-clitoris.com
" It is not until the twelfth week of development that you can start to visually determine the sex of a fetus. Even after more than twelve weeks, they still look very similar.
It is for this reason that male and female reproductive and sexual organs are more alike than they first appear. The clitoris is actually a penis that is not fully developed, or another way of looking at it, a penis is a fully developed clitoris. As with a penis, the clitoral glans and shaft become engorged with blood during sexual arousal resulting in an erection. When the clitoris becomes well developed it looks exactly like a small penis, minus a urethra. In addition the glans and corona may be well defined and the entire clitoris may project outward from the body. A woman can have a large clitoris at birth, or acquire one as the result of taking prescription and non-prescription steroids."
And there's our biology lesson for the week :) |
