“…However, we did locate evidence of an embryonic neural process that organizes midline cranial features, which could plausibly relate morphology to behavior in other contexts. It is possible that a prominent tubercle of the lip is a marker of more complete development (it is also possible that in some cases a prominent tubercle of the lip is because of retention, as opposed to infantile loss, of the tubercle [29], which some have conjectured aids the infant's suckling [30]). Thus, it is possible that a flatter or absent tubercle might have something in common with the at times subtle lip abnormalities associated with subtle neuropsychologic abnormalities in marginal cases of fetal alcohol syndrome [31,32].…”

Introduction Recent studies have uncovered multiple markers of vaginal orgasm history (unblocked pelvic movement during walking, less use of immature psychological defense mechanisms, greater urethrovaginal space). Other markers (perhaps of prenatal origin) even without obvious mechanistic roles in vaginal orgasm might exist, and a clinical observation led to the novel hypothesis that a prominent tubercle of the upper lip is such a marker. Aims To examine the hypothesis that a prominent tubercle of the upper lip is associated specifically with greater likelihood of experiencing vaginal orgasm (orgasm elicited by penile–vaginal intercourse [PVI] without concurrent masturbation). Methods Women (N = 258, predominantly Scottish) completed an online survey reporting their frequencies of various sexual activities and corresponding orgasms, age, and the prominence of the tubercle of their upper lip. Social desirability response bias was also assessed. Main Outcome Measures Multivariate associations of lip tubercle prominence with vaginal orgasm (ever and past month consistency) and with orgasm by other means. Results A prominent and sharply raised lip tubercle was associated with greater odds (odds ratio = 12.3) of ever having a vaginal orgasm, and also with greater past month vaginal orgasm consistency (an effect driven by the women who never had a vaginal orgasm), than less prominent lip tubercle categories. Lip tubercle was not associated with social desirability responding, or with orgasm triggered by masturbation during PVI, solitary or partner clitoral or vaginal masturbation, vibrator, or cunnilingus. Conclusions The results are discussed in light of the unique nature of vaginal orgasm and the possibility of prenatal developmental influences.

SIX FIGURESIn 1863 Luschka noted the occurrence of villi on the lips of newborn children and described the lips as comprising two zones, the pars glabra, extending from the red border to the normal line of contact of the closed lips, and orally to this, the pars villosa bearing villi. The distinctness of the two zones apparently disappeared, however, within a month after birth, owing to the disappearance of tne villi, but in 1895 Neustatter found 'that he could still distinguish the two zones in the child, after the disappearance of the villi, by differences in the structure of the mucosa. This led him to e x t a d his observations to the adult with the result that he found that the differences occurring in the child persisted throughout life, the mucosa of the pars villosa being characterized by a much thicker epithelial layer and by much larger, irregular, vascular papillse than were present in the pars glabra.A little latar Stieda ('99) made a more thorough study of the pars villosa and definitely determined the time of the appearance of the villi, his results in this dir\ection being as follows: "The villosities of the upper and lower lip appear first in exceptional cases, in the fourth month (of intrauterine life), in the fifth month in 50 per cent, and in the sixth month in almost 75 per cent of cases. From the seventh month on they are invariably present." But Stieda's observations were not extended t o the adult, nor 'did he perceive that the pars villosa extended considerably beyond the lip area. This was demonstrated by Malka Ramm ('05) who found trhat in the fetus the villi extended from the angle of 447
