Priapism - Answers -Prolonged erection of the penis, either partially or fully, for 4-5

Can be caused by circulatory disorders.
Consequences of Priapism - Answers -Even one case can cause permanent damage
to the spongy tissue that holds erections.
Peyronie's Disease - Answers -A condition in which scar tissue causes your penis to
curve or lose length or girth; can cause pain and/or difficulty having sex.
Cause of Peyronie's Disease - Answers -Fibrous tissue/growth and calcium deposits
get built up in the spongy tissue and block blood from going back to the tissue.
Consequences of Peyronie's Disease - Answers -Causes the penis to curve when erect
and has a higher risk of rupturing.
Clitoris - Answers -The most sensitive part of the vulva, which contains numerous
nerve endings and plays a major role in sexual arousal and pleasure in women.
, Analogous to the glans of the penis, but is more sensitive than the glans.
Clitoral Sensitivity - Answers -Too much stimulation in the clitoris either hurts or tickles.
Has the same number of nerve endings as the glans (penis), but are more densely
concentrated.
The Vagina - Answers -A muscular, elastic passageway that extends from the uterus to
the outside of the body.
Has no analogous male part.
Amenorrhea - Answers -When a woman of normal menstruation age is not

Consequences of Amenorrhea - Answers -A problem because estrogen maintains
bone density and prevents brittle bone disease in old age.

fallopian tube).
Attitudes about STBBIs - Answers -Typically negative/judgemental attitudes.
Blaming the person who has it or suggesting they deserve it.
Consequences of Attitudes Toward STBBIs - Answers -Poor attitudes about STBBIs
leads to poor communication and thus poor judgment in avoiding them.
Why WSM are at High-Risk for STBBIs - Answers -1. Higher risk because they receive
body fluids (i.e., male ejaculate goes inside them).
2. Penis does not tear but vagina can, meaning STBBIs can enter their bloodstream
more easily than for straight men.
