Inner lips; pink tissue folds between vestibule and labia majora. Clitoris: small cylindrical erectile tissue beneath the prepuce; rich blood supply/nerve endings; circumcision; infibulation. Vestibule: region between the labia minora; urethral and vaginal openings. Urethral meatus: between clitoris and vagina, where urethra is.
