I went into EB Games and had a discussion with a couple of the workers there, when we ended up mentioning male boobs and breast milk. I love those guys.

because we're apes and we have ape like tits

and human male reproductive organs do retract what are you remotely on about?

I've never heard of a human dong retracting. Shrinking, yes, but retracting? No.

for most male reproductive organs in mammals, the retraction is to protect the most sensitive area, which the human one does as well, however where other animals might have a majority of it as the "most sensitive area", humans for the most part only have the tip as the most sensitive part, which does have a clearly defined sheathed/unsheathed state

You're right that the tip retracts into the foreskin, but the penis as a whole is still left dangling outside the body.

the anatomical name for the tip is "glans penis" because it's basically the equivalent to the penis of other non-apes. for example, the tip is the equivalent to the entire red rocket on a dog. a majority of what we refer to as the "penis" on a human is mostly just the shaft, which isn't technically the penis in comparison to other animals, just the tip is.

1. That's actually really interesting. I didn't know that.

2. Why did our shaft get so big and glans get so small? Other animals don't have a big dangly shaft. Imagine how much harder it would be for dogs to run around naked if they did...

we're apes so our genitalia is that of an ape. apes, canines, felines, and pretty much every mammal has pretty different reproductive organs than one another. one of the leading theories as to why ape male genitalia are like that is because as a species, we walk upright and don't really have the risk of it dragging along the ground, so it's less necessary.
