Someone who has NEVER please a woman.

The key here is "female". Try finding a book about the human anatomy and look specifically in the lower abdomen area. I'm sure you'll find it...

Well...it's "clitoris". The thing is, most people pronounce it putting the accent on the first syllable, as in CLIT-or-is. To get it to rhyme with Delores, you have to put the accent on the second syllable, as in clit-OR-is. (I guess some people pronounce it this way.) So, I guess it rhymes on a technicality.
