Got you, horny bastards!
...now go back to benching.
For the female Spotted Hyena, the clitoris grows very big, and thus named "pseudopenis. Initial belief of the extreme development of the clitoris is that it is due to the higher levels of testosterone present in females. However tests of anti-androgens administrations did not stop the growth of the clitoris and thus is now believed to be due to genetics.
The enlarged clitoris makes forced sex almost impossible as "the male has to balance precariously and requires the full cooperation of the female". This leave the male hyenas no choice but to follow the mating preferences of the females.
The pseudo penis of the hyena plays a high social role. Subordinates individuals will lick this genital of a higher ranked female to show submission. Furthermore, the pseudo penis of the domainant female will be licked by all the other hyenas in the clan. And when female lick one another's clitorises, they are greeting one another and are strengthening the links between them.
