'''PWHP''' ('''
Other terms used for this concept include '''PHP''' ('''
PWHP includes individuals who have had a penis from birth and individuals who have had [[sex]] reassignment surgery to create a penis. The term includes most [[cisgender]] [[men]], [[non-binary]] individuals who have penis either from birth or through sex reassignment surgery, [[transgender]] [[women]] who are [[transine]] or pre-transition, some [[intersex]] individuals, transgender men and other [[transmasculine]] individuals who have had sex reassignment surgery, and some [[transsex]]/[[altersex]]/[[AFAB-P]] women.
PWHP is a term designed to combat the ideology that having a penis is what makes one a [[man]] and to promote gender-neutral language and terms. The term also allows simplicity in describing genitalia in medical situations, such as sex education, where describing individuals as "male" may ignore the existence of intersex and transgender folk.

== History ==
The term was coined by [[User:Cryptocrew|Cryptocrew]] on March 13, 2021 in order to help relieve [[dysphoria]] and discomfort in many [[genderqueer]] individuals. The alternate wordings of PWHP, PHP and PEP were created by Wiki user foreigntoolmaker on September 30th since some people were uncomfortable with POP. Weniviere, the coiner of the term, did not realize that the original wording "people/individuals ''of'' penises" sounded uncomfortable, due to English not being her first language, and has since acknowledged this grammatical mistake and embraces "PWHP/IWHP" as the main term.
The flag was designed on March 17, 2024 by Tumblr user genderstarbucks.<ref>https://archive.md/v1tkF</ref>
