A sex organ narrowly defined is any of those parts of the body (which are not always bodily organs according to the strict definition) which are involved in sexual reproduction. They constitute the reproductive system in an complex organism. More generally and popularly, sex organs are those parts of the body involved in erotic pleasure.
The Latin term genitalia is used to describe the sex organs, and in the English language is most often used to describe the externally visible sex organs or external genitalia.
A gonad is an organ that produces gametes, specifically the testes or ovaries in humans.
The human sex organs are as follows.
