Men's erect penis size depend on method of arousal

The average American man's penis is 5.6 inches (14.2 centimeters) long when erect, a new survey of 1,661 men finds. The study, published online July 10 in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, is relatively consistent with the results of prior surveys of penis size.

In the new study, Debby Herbenick, a researcher at Indiana University, and her colleagues asked 1,661 men to measure their penis's length and girth for the purposes of fitting for a condom. (The men submitted their data online.)

At the time of their measurement, some men were with partners or "a friend," although most employed a DIY method for attaining an erection. Moreover, all erections are not created equal, the study also found.

Different methods of obtaining an erection may lead to different size measurements — men in the study who became aroused through oral sex reported larger penis size on average than those who attained erections through fantasizing, Herbenick said. "We don't know if that means that when men have oral sex that it's more arousing and they get a bigger erection, or means that men who have bigger penises could be getting more oral sex in the first place," Herbenick told LiveScience.

Do women judge men by their penis size?

Research shows women find men with bigger penises more attractive

Call it sexist or sensationalist, but now science suggests it’s so: women find men with bigger penises more attractive.



Reporting in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, researchers led by Brian Mautz, now a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Ottawa in Canada, studied how 105 young Australian women rated attractiveness in males.

The researchers, including those from Monash University and Australian National University, asked the women to view life-size video clips of computer-generated images of naked men who varied in height, body shape and flaccid penis size, but not in other qualities like facial attractiveness and hair. The women gave each image a rating from 1 to 7 on total sexual attractiveness, rather than assessing individual characteristics.

But height was equally important. Shorter men with larger penises were ranked as more attractive than shorter men who were not as well endowed, but they still remained on the low end of the scale for overall appeal, says Mautz. “You’d think that if penis size is super attractive, it might help shorter guys more. It does increase attractiveness for short men, but they still are under average in attractiveness scores.”

How big are Asian men?

Top Japanese sex toy manufacturer releases data on penis size

Do Asian men have the smallest dicks? Tenga, Japan's most famous manufacturer of male masturbation products has released the data on their penis size survey.

According to Tenga, which is a sponsor of The Tokyo Reporter this month, the average length of a Japanese male’s erection is 13.56 centimeters, with a diameter of 3.53cm at the head and 3.19cm at the shaft.

Since Tenga launched its first models in Japan on July 7, 2005, its products have gone on sale in over 40 nations, with more than 20 million units shipped. A variety of reputable gentlemen, such as film director “Beat” Takeshi Kitano, have become passionate patrons of Tenga products and praised them in public.

Tenga’s findings closely approximate those of Andro Medical of Madrid, Spain, a producer of various patented devices for penis enlargement. According to the company, the 13cm penis length ranks Japanese males 10th worldwide, putting Japan behind France, Australia and Italy, but, rather amazingly, ahead of the United States, in 11th place with an average of 12.9cm.

While Thailand was rated tops in Asia with an average length of 13.5cm, no doubt Shukan Post’s readers enjoyed a smirk at the expense of South Koreans, whose average of 9.6cm made them the shortest among males in 17 Asian countries.

Actor's penis may cost him an award

Michael Fassbender's penis is the latest movie sensation

With a Golden Globe nomination, a flurry of press coverage and even a mention from George Clooney during his Globe acceptance speech, it's clear: Michael Fassbender's penis is the new toast of Hollywood.
Fassbender played an emotionally distant sex addict and went full frontal nude for Steve McQueen's drama "Shame," which earned the film an NC-17 rating and, ironically, far more press than it would have gotten otherwise.

The German-Irish star's performance earned him a Best Actor nod at the Golden Globes, and should also scoop him up an Oscar nomination, but his immense talent has almost been overshadowed by incessant talk about his member.

Clooney thanked him for "taking over the frontal nude responsibly that I had," during his Globes acceptance speech, adding, "Really Michael, honestly, you can play golf like this with your hands behind your back."

Clooney again made mention of his anatomical club during an actors roundtable hosted by Newsweek, calling him the "expert" in issues of on-screen erection and drawing Fassbender into talking about a difficult urination scene in "Shame."

Does your penis shrink after sports?

Help for men with penis shrinking problems

Many people have asked this question. Many men get really upset when they've been working out just before a date and notice that their penis has shrunk to its minimum flaccid size. This is a condition we call "Sport Shrinkage". During an exercise, blood is needed for other parts of the body and therefore the blood from the penis is "drained" for use elsewhere in our bodies. This leaves you with a tiny penis for sometimes up to 18 hours after an intensive workout.

"I've recently taken up running,i'm 42. When i return from my run my penis has shrunk to almost child size! My testicles also disappear. This is utterly the most embarassing thing ever. At the weekend i was in a long run, after, i had to get changed, i looked at all the other men who were naked and having showers, they all looked huge in comparison to me. What can i do about this problem? It's making me depressed."

Think of how embarrassing it is going on a date and then having your partner see your penis in its smallest flaccid state. But as with everything, now there is a solution with a product called Bath-mate.

5 things you never knew about your penis

Is your penis too big?

Men with large penises never complain, or do they?

When it comes to sex, bigger isn’t always better – but you’ll almost never hear a guy complain that his penis is too large. When it comes to having real sex in the real world, it’s better to have a real average-sized penis than a pumped-up penis!

First off, when you consider that the average vagina is only about 3 inches deep, an average sized guy will certainly be able to reach her cervix with his erection. And even when a woman is aroused, and her vagina expands another inch or so, it still isn’t as deep as the length of the average guy.

Most women would agree that girth is usually more important than length when it comes to enjoying intercourse – that’s because there’s an abundance of erectile tissue that surrounds the opening of the vagina. The average width of an erect penis is about 4 3/4 inches around, and generally it isn’t until a penis is over 6 inches in circumference that some partners will start to feel it becomes a little challenging. Having a large penis can be challenging, but there’s much you can do to make the experience more pleasurable for your partner:
