Clitoral hood

Wikipedia

 

In female human anatomy, the clitoral hood, (also called prepuce), is a fold of skin that surrounds and protects the clitoral glans. It develops as part of the labia minora and is homologous with the foreskin (equally called prepuce) in male genitals.
The size and shape of the hood varies among a lot of women.
