 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. The term was also made for more simplicity in describing genitalia in medical situations, such as sex education, as saying "male" would leave out many intersex and trans individuals. POP can also stand for "person of (a) penis" if one wishes to refer to another person or themself as a POP.

+The term was coined by [[User:Cryptocrew|Cryptocrew]] on March 13, 2021 in order to help relieve [[dysphoria]] and discomfort in many [[genderqueer]] individuals. 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.
