"What is an "average" size for a penis?

The enduring question now has a scientific answer: 5.16 inches in length when erect, and 4.59 around, according to an analysis of more than 15,000 appendages around the world.

In a flaccid state, it found, the penis of the average Joe is all of 3.61 in. in length and has a girth of 3.68 in.

The numbers should help "reassure the large majority of men that the size of their penis is in the normal range," said British researchers who had assembled data from studies where participants had their member measured by a professional.

The team then used the collated numbers to devise a graph that doctors can use in counselling men with "small penis anxiety".

In the worst cases, men may be diagnosed with Body Dysmorphic Disorder — a debilitating psychological condition that can lead to obsessive and anti-social behaviour, depression and even suicide.

In reality, only 2.28% of the male population have an abnormally small penis, said the study — and the same percentage an unusually large one.

The study participants were men aged 17-91 who had their penises measured in 20 previously published studies conducted in Europe, Asia, Africa and the United States.

The team found no evidence for penis size differences linked to race, though most of the study participants were of European and Middle Eastern descent and a full comparison could thus not be made.

Nor did the researchers find any convincing correlation between a man's foot size and the length of his manhood.

They acknowledged their results may have been somewhat skewed by the possibility that men who volunteer to be examined may be more confident in their penis size than the general population.

The team said their work, published in the BJU International journal of urology, was the first to combine all existing data on penis length and girth into a definitive graph.

The information may be useful for reassuring men worried about their size. But it may also have the unintended effect of shrivelling the egos of those who thought they were abnormally well-endowed.

Doctors may also use the graph to help men find well-fitting condoms, said the team.

When people actually have the guts to ask, I either tell them it's confidential nursing information, or it's the Far East Asian guys and everybody else has been lyin', lol.

Somehow, I'm fairly certain that guys in this range know they're in this range and not abnormally well-endowed. If anything, the misconception would go the other direction because of porn.
 
Since I'm the proverbial open book, I'll go ahead and admit that my length, when erect, is 6 inches, and my girth 6 inches. I know that sounds like a cube, but it's not.

Anyway, the point is...I don't care if it's average, I still want another two inches or so. At least then I could make money in porn or something.

Sure, we could talk about my slight upward curve, or the bulging ridge of the knob in all its purplish glory, and all that...but it doesn't matter. I will always feel inferior for not being superior. :(

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the burden I carry with me in everything I post here.

Alas.

Alas.

I. Am. DYING over here! "...a cube..." :hilarious: :hilarious: :hilarious:!!

So the study didn't include an equal amount of men from varying races/nationalities? How can they make claims about it being so definitive?

They acknowledged their results may have been somewhat skewed by the possibility that men who volunteer to be examined may be more confident in their penis size than the general population.

No shit.

What a pointless, waste of work and resources. Wonder how much money was thrown away doing this nonsense. So many other things of actual value could have been studied.

It's not like there's actual mens health issues that exist. Nah, nothing of importance. Let's just measure cocks. Fuck, what about womens health issues. Fuck making this a gender thing, why not throw some money into that, do some research taht might be of some even minimal amount of benefit to people.

Classless trash "science".

IMO, *applause!* Let's waste precious grant dollar resources on measuring the width and depth of the average vagina next time. Put me down for a few extra tax/Uni. dollars toward that shit, too. :rolleyes:
