BlackChampagne -- no longer new; improvement also in question.: Penis Size: It's all in your head?

Penis Size: It's all in your head?


That appears to be the conclusion to draw from this article, at least.
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Men worried about having a small penis are usually pretty average, but have a false idea of what the normal size is, according to a report in the medical journal Urology.

...Men should know that a normal-sized penis is 1.6 inches or more when flaccid or 2.76 inches when stretched out.

...However, on average, they estimated that the "normal" flaccid length should be to be 5.1 inches.
I clipped the details, and I'm not sure what "should be to be" means, but the gist of the story is that they surveyed nearly 100 hundred men who went to a hospital in Cairo, Egypt, all thinking their penises were way too small. All of them were actually within the average flaccid size range though, and they all felt better about themselves once the doctors showed them that, and then lived happily ever after. Why they were so concerned with their flaccid size is not discussed, and I would have guessed that they spent a lot of time in locker rooms... except that they had absolutely no idea how long the average penis was. It's a mystery, really.

Of course as I've blogged in the past, the allowed range of lengths for an "average" penis is ridiculously wide. They say that something like 90% of men are between 4-7" when erect, which may be true, but the 4.1" guy and the 6.9" guy are going to have a very different idea of their size. Ninety percent of grown women may be between 4.5" and 6" feet, but that doesn't mean the extremes in both directions don't know they're shorter or taller than everyone else.
Comments:

Who gives a crap about flaccid length anyway?


 

re: Lanth's comment: ROFLM@O!

Of course, since size isn't an issue in this household (flaccid or not)...I really can't comment. =)


 

Isn't the locker room problem that the angle makes your own look smaller than the others. I've heard such explanations anyway..
