Impotence
Commonly used term for erectile dysfunction, the inability to achieve penile erection or to maintain an erection until ejaculation.

Incest
Sexual activity between relatives or family members; the statutory crime of sexual relations with such a near relative.

Infibulation
The ritual practice of cutting off the inner labia and stitching together the outer lips; a part of female circumcision practiced in some cultures.

Inguinal Canal
The passageway in the male that leads from the abdomen to the scrotum through which the testes usually descend shortly before birth. It is a frequent site of hernias.

Intercourse
Sexual activity in which the penis or dildo is inserted into an orifice such as the vagina or anus; the term is often modified accordingly (e.g. anal intercourse).

Intersexed
Sex anatomy is thought of as occuring in two ways - male or female. This way of separating sex is inaccurate in that even genetic testing cannot guarantee that you will know what sex characteristics a person will have. Because we have only two categories of sex, most people are assigned a category at birth and are expected to stick to that category throughout their lives. Depending on what hormones affect a fetus during its developement, fetal gonads differentiate into various configuations. Intersexed people's developement didn't settle to one of the extremes of genital differentiation.
