The cloaca holds both the penis and the butthole on a male, and the vagina on a female. They still have penetrative sex. They're not fish. It just doesn't poke outside the body.

Can you back that up? I've spent the last 10 minutes searching up cloaca diagrams and pictures and articles and I can't find any decent information about it. Only saying that they do a cloaca kiss and transfer sperm, but then I can't find a cloaca diagram that labels any part as a penis.

I couldn't find anything specific to peacocks either, but plenty of various other birds, including chickens which have the smallest little nub of a penis to ducks and their long, twisty corkscrew cock.

Yeah, I'm not sure you could call whatever a chicken does "penetrative", and I feel like the term "penis" has a specific meaning that wouldn't include cloaca.

Thank you for the image, btw
