external genitals' naming conventions

[JohnPBailey]

The vulva is the female external genitalia collectively. Laymen commonly call that a vagina but that term is not accurate. 

There seems to be no formal scientific collective term for male external genitalia but slang terms including manhood and package. 

What might be a good scientific term for male external genitalia as a whole corresponding to vulva for females? 

VULVA is Latin for "covering, womb, or matrix". What single Latin word might best describe the whole of the male external parts? 

The Latin word for "rooster is "gallus". Does a bird's head with wattles not closely resemble male parts?

Why does there need to be? Science/medicine has managed to proceed without one.

vulva does not refer to the entire reproductive system; it’s just one part. The various parts have their own name.

I would think VULVA was adopted for females so as not to have to say, "mons veneris, labia majora, labia minora, clitoris, urethra, vulva vestibule, vestibular bulbs, Bartholin's glands, Skene's glands, and vaginal opening". For the male we have to at least say, " the penis, testes and the scrotum" to name the whole shebang on the outside of the body. It would be easier to say a single word for all these parts collectively. We can say MANHOOD but that word has multiple meanings. Terms are invented for simplification of speech.
