Draft:Wenis

The wenis, sometimes spelled weenus or weenis, is a loose flap of skin underneath the joint of a human elbow. The word developed from slang in the 1990s. The area may also be referred to as olecranal skin.

Anatomy
The wenis is located on the exterior tip of the olecranon. The skin is taught and smooth when the elbow is flexed, but loose and wrinkled when the elbow is straightened. It may lose elasticity and begin to sag with age.

The region is not typically sensitive to acute pain from pinching. This is due to the wenis having a high amount of subcutaneous fat, relatively few pain receptors, and tough skin. It is also known as a difficult or impossible spot to lick oneself.

The wenis is a site where slit-skin smear tests may be performed to diagnose leprosy in patients.

Etymology
Wenis comes from a slang term that developed in the 1990s as a humorous portmanteu of the words penis and wiener. It has seen proliferation as a schoolyard meme, and alongside the term wagina, has been an internet colloquialism since the early 2000s.

A variation of the spelling may be attributed to a 1995 episode of Friends which discusses the acronym WENUS. The word was further popularized by The Hangover film franchise.
