Most people assume average size is much bigger. While scientists say the sample wasn’t quite big enough to reach a firm conclusion on this, they found no link between size and race. The study also busted the myth that size varies with race. The typical penis is just 13.12cms (5.16ins) long and 11.66cms (4.6ins) around when erect. It makes you wonder if one day, lab-grown or donated penises will be grafted on to men who have extreme concerns over size.Īnd at the start of March we learned about a study of 15,000 penises, finally answering the question of average size. He had lost his penis in a botched circumcision at age 18 but now has a fully functioning member, capable of urination, erection, orgasm and ejaculation. Over the weekend we heard a penis transplant on a 21-year-old in South Africa had apparently been a success. The subject has been firmly on the agenda with a couple of big stories over the last few weeks.
We all know that penis size is one of men’s greatest obsessions but most don’t know the surprising truth behind the size myths.ĭid you know, for example, that humans are better endowed than all our primate cousins? You may expect a gorilla to be better hung than you but you would be wrong, both in terms of absolute and relative size.
