What to do With More Than One Clitoris

Posted by Emily Farris

Yesterday, after the much-discussed "penes/penises" incident, we asked if you knew the plural of clitoris. It turns out, you did not. Well, more than 80 percent of you did not.

The plural of clitoris is...

CLITORIDES. 

Our thoughts, exactly. 

Apparently, as some of you pointed out, like penis, there are multiple correct answers, but in our quiz, there was only one. 

We hope that with this information you will go forth and make the clitorides of the world very, very happy.
