It's any organ that is used in INTERNAL fertilization by the male to place sperm inside of the female. This includes penises, but isn't limited to those particular organs. It also includes the "claspers" of chondrichthyes fish like sharks. These are technically fins, but are inserted inside the female's cloaca. A very small groove along the clasper carries sperm and semen along the outside of the clasper and into the female. There are lots of different adaptations among animals to go about internal fertilization, not just penises, so "intermittent organ" is a word to describe all of those organs as a group.
