    Is there a place where this topic is covered? I searched the stickies and couldn't locate anything on the topic so thought I could at least give a brief mention to it.

    Basically, they're just small papules typically on the tip of the penis that are very commonly confused for Genital Warts (HPV). However, they are completely harmless and not contagious. According to the wiki page, it can appear between 8% and 48% of the population depending on the area.

    I dunno, does anyone want to elaborate on this, or is it of any importance? I figured since the "statistics" are high enough, there may have been some people wondering.

    Do a search for "pearly penile papules" (PPP). That's what most people know them as.

    To me, this is more of a kinky way of naming them. (just kidding)
