The clitoris is the only organ in the human body known to function solely to produce pleasure. Attitudes towards sexual pleasure and the status of women affected its study throughout history. Despite the work of feminist clinicians in the 1970's and 1980's, it wasn't until the nineties that Australian urologist Helen O'Connell and her colleagues initiated the mainstream medical profession's rediscovery of it for our time, and it took until just a few years ago to see it fully mapped via MRI and other non-invasive imaging technologies.

How does this impact sexuality?
