To follow up, in humans there's more variation than many realize. Even aside from the beautiful variety of ways penises and vulvas can look... at birth, there's a scale that doctors apply to determine if an infant is male, female or #intersex. So yes, even our genitals are on a spectrum.
The first image is the basic scale. The second is variations which include elements of both male and female genitals. (These are more uncommon. Also, many intersex people don't know until puberty.)

@tyghebright So cool! I'm actually really impressed with the variety. I had no idea!
@tyghebright I recall that from a genetics course back in the 80s. The information has been out there for people to know if they had wanted to.
Indeed. But people love to make everything into a binary.
