The '''penis''' is the external male organ of [[urination ]] and copulation.<ref name="farlex2003">{{REFweb

The body of the penis consists of three cylindrical-shaped masses of erectile tissue which run the length of the penis. Two of the masses lie alongside each other and end behind the head of the penis. The third mass lies underneath them. This latter mass contains the [[urethra]]. The penis terminates in an oval or cone-shaped body, the [[glans penis]], which contains the exterior opening of the [[urethra]], or [[meatus]].<ref name="farlex2003" />

The normal [[intact]], [[foreskinned]] penis is enveloped in a tube of loose, highly innervated, movable, erogenous skin, <ref name="winklemann1959">{{WinkelmannRK 1959}}</ref> the [[foreskin]] or prepuce, which enables it to expand freely during [[erection]]. <ref name="earp2018">{{REFjournal |last=Earp |first= |init=BD |author-link=Brian D.

The moist preputial sac may harmlessly collect oil-bearing [[smegma]], which is helpful in preventing dermatitis.<ref name="birley1993">{{REFjournal

The skin of the adult penis normally is somewhat darker than the rest of the body. This condition is called ''hyperpigmentation''.
