What is the problem with mentioning a slang term for the perineum: "the taint"? Certain editors seem to be on a long-term campaign to expunge any such mention from this article. The arguments presented here are sparse. I think the fact that many separate people come here to place this information indicates that its placement bears examination for merit.
Also, I see no reason that the guiche piercing (a perineal piercing) should not be mentioned here. If you disagree, please explain. Whatever404 ( talk) 02:11, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Pretty pathetic that the article doesn't mention the main terms actually used by ordinary folk.- 96.237.69.64 ( talk) 12:07, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
I don't generally think of myself as a stupid or simple person (who would?), but for the life of me I can't seem to understand this sentence:
The anogenital distance is a measure of male feminisation measuring the distance between the anus and the base of the penis.
I wasn't aware that measurements of the the anogenital distance corresponded to lack of masculinity. 24.200.137.18 ( talk) 00:51, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
The cart was before the horse so to speak. I corrected that paragraph so that the anogenital distance is defined FIRST, and then its predictive value is explained. Martindo ( talk) 23:05, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
Please replace the key male and female photos with better ones. The male photo currently is great at showing context orientation, but the base of the penis could be less obscured, and the anus is not visible. The highlighting arrow is confusing at best; a circle might be better. The current female photo works better, but is rather abstract in terms of context, which could confuse naive readers; the vagina is almost entirely censored; it would be good if the perineum itself were at a larger scale. It is unnecessarily confusing for the male and female photos to be turned 180 degrees in orientation.
The Perineal fascia terminology section is incomprehensible high-faultin scientific gibberish, without explanatory diagrams and pictures.

Is there any reason we can't simply have pictures (compare the Spanish page) of real healthy people rather than dissected drawings? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.12.127.142 ( talk) 19:36, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
This article probably should be moved to "human perieneum". -- Tomdo08 ( talk) 00:25, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

I removed what I felt is gratuitous nudity by Frozen777, in which he uploaded a photograph of himself lying down in a full-body shot gazing at the camera, displaying the perineum.

Readily merged into Perineum#Perineal body. Benefits readers by giving more context to the information and centralising information. Can be reexpanded if necessary at a later date. Tom (LT) ( talk) 23:33, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
Why is the penis erect in a medical illustration that does not relate to sexual productivity? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.251.102.122 ( talk • contribs) .
Should this get a mention ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.45.12.92 ( talk) 12:04, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
