¿HOW BIG IS YOURS?

In the last few years, it has become apparent that the average man's penis is not as long as had been thought previously.

For decades, medical books and articles in the press have confidently stated that penile length is generally about 6.5 inches (16.5 centimetres).As a result, a lot of males who are slightly shorter than this have felt rather inadequate.

However, it now seems that the statistics on which this 'average' was based could well have a serious flaw. It is this: the figure was originally calculated by collecting measurements that men had carried out themselves!

Self-measurement of this sort is notoriously unreliable.

Why? Because so many males don't know where to measure from or use inaccurate rulers or ancient tape measures.

Also, there's a tendency for guys to round their 'scores' upwards, in an attempt to make themselves sound better-endowed. And the results tend to be skewed by people who falsely claim to be 10 or 11 inches long.

In recent times, a number of scientists have attempted to obtain more reliable figures, by the simple expedient of employing a trained person to carry out the measurement of each man.

And the results, which they have produced, seem to indicate that the average adult male is considerably shorter than had been thought.

In reality, the mean length of the erect penis appears to be only about 5.88 inches (14.9 centimetres), which is considerably less than the 'old' measurement.

Does all this matter? If you're a woman, you probably think that this concern about fractions of an inch is rather silly.

But if you're a man, you will know that such matters are – somewhat irrationally – of considerable importance to many males.

Why do men worry about length?

But other than surgery, there's nothing that's clinically proven to increase penis size.

Even in this supposedly enlightened century, men fret about penis size and especially length.

Though the vast majority of guys have more than enough bulk and length to perform well as lovers, there's a widespread masculine obsession that 'more would be better'.

So, we get a constant flow of emails and letters from males who are worried that they are 'too small'.

Companies who advertise penis-enlarging creams and pills on the internet make vast sums of money by exploiting this obsession.

Worrying about penile size is not confined to heterosexual males. Many gay men have the same feelings about 'wanting to be bigger'. However, a lot of homosexual guys do not want a partner with a particularly large phallus.

What treatments are there to increase penis size?

Many companies claim they know how to enlarge your penis – for a very high price.

Their opinions on the various methods that are so widely advertised to the public can be summed up as follows.

Pills or patches for increasing penis size: a complete waste of time.

Penile enlargement surgery: of uncertain value and sometimes dangerous.

Penile enlargement exercises: probably pretty futile.

Penile suction devices: probably of little use.
