Genitalia
Genitalia are defined as the sex organs, or any anatomical parts of the body which are involved in sexual reproduction and constitute the reproductive system in a complex organism.
Genitalia and furry
Many furries that detail their character's form to include anatomical correctness need to choose whether to use human-like or animal-like genitalia.
In furry art, the depiction of genitalia is what generally separates the ratings, mature art showing the "naughty bits." Genitalia can be depicted as human-like or more realistic to the type of animal drawn. This is most commonly a question among male and hermaphroditic characters, since the penis varies much more widely between species than the vagina.
Penises
There are many that utilize a humanoid penis, many of which have such a penis inside a sheath. Many others include animalistic features.
For example, canine male characters may have a canine penis with a chisel tip and the process of a knot at the base. Felines may have a sharply-pointed glans covered in soft barbs. Equines often have a comparatively larger penis, many with a flaring, mushroom-shaped glans. Serious kangaroo males may have a long, tapering, crooked penis, Cloaca instead of a sheath and even have their testicles hanging above their Cloaca instead of below like a anatomical correct Marsupial
The tastes of heterosexual females, herms and homosexual males in regards to genitalia varies greatly. Some may seek out animalistic features, while others may be ambivalent, and still others are averted from such features and favor humanoid genitals.
Vagina/Vulva
While there are many that utilize a humanoid vagina, there are some exceptions. Some examples are the Y-slit vulva of canine furs. Animalistic vulvae are extremely rare in anthropomorphic artwork.
