The average is certainly not higher than 5.9" ( bone pressed length ) - for Europe.
Several studies of condom brands; urology numbers; sexuologists numbers, etc... confirms this.
Stddev maybe a little higher : 0.9" or a tick under 1".

And a normal distribution is never strictly normal - but close to normal.
The mystery sits in the tails on both ends in a distribution.
So 3stddev : 5.9"+(3*0.9)=8.6" and 5.9"-(3*0.9)=3.2"
All men situates between 3.2" and 8.6" - but there are more IRL -3.2" and +8.6" then statiscally on paper.
But not by very much ( x2, x3 ).

Honestly if there were so many +8.6"; than I would see more length in porn.
Now the majority in porn sits between 7" and 8.5"; and by exception you'll see a true 9"-er
.


totally agree... let alone of 10 incher!! never seen a cock that long in a porn... btw what does IRL mean? and how do you know that 5.9 inches are bone pressed?

ty mate! I too am pretty sure that a 7 inches long penis (NOT bone pressed) is something really big and quite uncommon..let alone of 8.5,9,10,10+.... I believe that a human penis 12 inches long is never existed and will never exist



yes and no.......the bigest ever measured was 13.5 inches.....but i think this is probably as rare as 8 foot tall humans.......they have existed.

btw i am a doctor and have done rotations in urology.......and have seen LOTS of penises...all ages and races........only 2 over 8 inches and never 9

im a shad over 8 and most girls im with say im by far ther biggest....have had a ton of group sex and never seen bigger....

now as far as average...i would guess from what is see in clinic about 5 or 6 inches.....closer to 5.....but let me tell you thats not what you see in swinger , group sex situations........now while i have not really studied it...so my evedence is anacdotal...im guessing small penis guys are a lot less Promiscuous

Of the guys I have been with none were that big. One was about 8 inches, the rest were 7 inches or less.
This is interesting. But it raises the question: "How many have your been with?"

Also, what were the distribution of guys under 7 and what do you think the true average was? What about girth?

How the hell would you know the range and average erection sizes of patients in a medical setting?!?!

What percentage of men do you think are 8.5 inches or more? 1%? 5%? 0.5%? 0.01%? or 0.0001%? Sure it's more than that but let's hear your opinion based on your experience. (If you could state the estimated amount of experience you've had as well, that would be great but optional).

I guess 1 in 50 men is bigger than 8.5", so that is about 2%. Not all statistics agree on that, but in my experience it could be well true. I don't know the total number of guys I've met over the years, but most of them (about 60%) were just above average, let's say some 6-7 inches.

I reckon there's far more really big cocks out there than people seem to realize. Everyone seems to showing off a huge one on the internet but then again smaller guys aren't going to be inclined to show theirs off so much...

The comments regarding personal experience, accurate as they may be, do not replace the scientific studies done which have established the baseline range of penis size. There is great consistency between the studies which have spanned several decades.

Even those studies may overstate size since participation in most was voluntary and self selected. Men with smaller penises may be less likely than men with larger penises to participate in a study measuring penis size.

There certainly are some big penises out there, just as there are some very small ones. But there is a tendency to overstate size (a one hander is NOT eight plus inches, as is often claimed), and drawing conclusions based on photos on the internet can easily lead to severe misperception. There are two basic types of men posting pictures of their penises online: Men posting real pictures because they are proud of their larger than average size; and fake men, with either altered photos or close up shots and flattering angles to increase perceived size. Either way, the cross section of online dicks does not accurately reflect the broader population.

A final thought: the mind tends to remember what is memorable (duh). Perhaps the few big ones seen in locker rooms and elsewhere stand out as something out of the ordinary and special, while the multitude of small ones do not and are not as well retained in the memory.

in the general medical setting most people were not erect......


however..... before viagra i would get alot of impotent patents.....the treatment at the time was caverjet......that required and injection into the penis.....most patents wanted you to show them how to do it the first time....bang instant boner...

also certain urological surgeries require you to know the exact size of errection.......like implants.

also some (few) patents get errect when examining them.....

as far as exact and average....outside of surgerys we never really write it down or graph it ....so im guessing the on average.....thats why i said between 5 and 6inches.....


while you get a small one her and there .....and a large one here and there ....it seeemed that most were right in the 5 to 6 range.......medical liturature, recent studies and all non internet bragging seem to conferm this

Much less.
I have here a paper of the university of Leuven :
208mm ( =+/- 8.2" ) and higher : less than 0.3%
So 8.5" and higher must be a fraction of that 0.3%
If your number would be true, we would see more length in porn.
And above 8.5" is even in that big penis world not common.

Considering that you are a medical professional and a graduate of advanced studies, one would think that you would be a bit more proficient with your writing skills, particularly spelling.

Thanks to all for this interesting thread...one of the great things about LPSG is we can all talk about all this stuff that is hard to discuss well elsewhere.

If your number would be true, we would see more length in porn.

What do you mean by "more length in porn"?? No matter where we think the average is, porn is already populated by a bunch of guys who are way above the average.

In thinking about this more, I stand by my original thoughts that based on my experience, it seems like more than 16 out of 100 penises are over 6.7" and that more than 2 of 100 are over 7.5". I take to heart several points made by other folks though, such as we are more likely to remember the big ones.

It also occurred to me that I've never actually put the tape measure to anyone other then myself, so I don't really know anyone's length...only my perception of their length...which is not the same thing.

I just took the tape measure to my Kevin Dean dildo (ha ha - I know, I'm a top mostly but I saw it and had to buy it...it's certainly barely used). Result was 11", though of course it's hard to know what bone pressed length means on a dildo, and hard to know if they increased the size of it. It looks about right relative to his cock appearance in his films.

let me add this : if you think a bit about the big penis issue what comes to mind is that a big penis (say 8+ inches in length and 6+ inches in girth) isn't very useful and altought it could have been selected by women in centuries of evolution it is painful and uncomfortable for most women... very large penises are rare as well as very tall people simply beacuse they are not functional IMO

The dildos that are marketed as replicas of porn star penises are usually 15-20% bigger than the penis they are modeled after. The proportions stay the same, but they are supersized.

I think I agree with BigD_2. I suspect that cocks in India, for example, are generally smaller than among Americans. India has a huge population, so just that element could influence the statistics. I'm not sure about China, another populous country. Chinese vary a lot in stature, but I believe they may be smaller in stature than Americans. I have seen a lot of cocks, and most have been smaller than mine. However, I have seen enough as big or bigger, that I don't see how the statistics given can be correct for the U.S. I am uncertain of the length of the largest I have seen (in person), but I would guess between 10 and 11 inches - and it was on a Black man. I have seen many pics of local guys who obviously are bigger than the statistics should allow. On one site where you can sort by penis size, there are about a dozen who list 10 1/2 or longer - and they are (or were) all Blacks. Even allowing for exaggeration, there are a LOT of BIG cocks out there.

Plain ridiculous.

India is a very diverse country, how can you assume that Indian cocks are generally smaller? This notorious BBC article, which started this whole Indian cocks are smaller myth was proven to be poor journalism. Gotta laugh at gullible people like you. There are a lot of big members from India on this site, and lots of other big dicked Indian guy pics on these boards.

Not sure abut Chinese, as most I have seen have been smaller compared to other nations.

It's a huge country, 1.1 billion people. Most of those don't have any presence on the internet. Also, the other thing is - the diversity of India means people from many different races. Forget about cocks - even people from North India look so much different from people in South India. If there was a racial relation to cock size, "India" cannot be generalized as a single race.
