This term is made to combat the ideology that having a penis is what makes one a [[man]], and is made promote gender-neutral language and terms. This term can also stand for "person of (a) penis" if one wishes to refer to another person or themself as a pop. This term was also made for more simplicity in describing genitallia in medical situations, such as sex education, as saying 'male' would leave out many intersex and trans individuals. |

A term similar to this is [[wolffian]], however this term is more specific to having every trait of a male, not just a penis, thus leaving out intersex and altersex individuals. One who is wolffian is also a POP, although one who is a POP is not always wolffian. |
