This study seems to contradict the fact that every male on Chiefs Planet is packing serious length and girth. Poll is private.
Cliff notes:
The average flaccid penis was found to be 9.16 cm (3.61 inches) long, whereas the average erect penis is 13.12 cm (5.16 inches) in length.
Only 5 men out of every 100 have an erect penis longer than 16 cm (6.3 inches).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, a study which may lay to rest some of the lingering fallacies about penis size and alleviate the woes shared by many men worldwide. According to new research, the average erect penis length is just over 13 centimeters, or around 5 inches. Furthermore, there’s no strong association between foot size and penis length, so women can stop judging men by the size of their shoes. You can read the entire study in BJU International.
Although many compare themselves to the “average” penis size, what this figure actually is has been surprisingly difficult to determine. As pointed out by Science, that’s mainly because most studies have relied on self-reporting, which isn’t very accurate. To get around this problem and obtain a more reliable data set, a team of U.K. researchers decided to compile measurements taken by health professionals who followed a standardized measuring procedure. They included both girth (the circumference at the base or the middle) and length (pubic bone to the tip of the glans) measurements from 20 different studies, which totaled 15,521 men from various countries across the world. And the results will be music to the ears of many.
The average flaccid penis was found to be 9.16 cm (3.61 inches) long, whereas the average erect penis is 13.12 cm (5.16 inches) in length. In terms of girth, the average circumference of a flaccid penis turned out to be 9.31 cm (3.66 inches), and 11.66 cm (4.59 inches) for an erect one. Furthermore, those at extreme ends of the spectrum were found to be much less common. For example, only 5 men out of every 100 have an erect penis longer than 16 cm (6.3 inches).
When they looked for correlations with other body features, such as testicular size, weight or foot size, no strong or consistent associations were found. Although they couldn’t find any significant evidence for a relationship between penis size and race, they note that conclusions can’t be drawn since the vast majority of measurements were from Caucasians.
So what’s the take home message? Men, don’t be so hard on yourself as what you see on the TV or in magazines is not an accurate representation of the average penis. But if you’re concerned, make sure you’re measuring correctly.
Humans are, in general, very conscious of their appearance. If we’re not sucking in our bellies for photographs we’re fixing our hair or hitting the gym for that extra round butt. Guys are also faced with the age old question: does size really matter?
You’ll be pleased to know that humans have the biggest penis of any primate both in terms of absolute size and relative proportion. High five.
But do men need bigger penises? What do women say? Does your package make you more or less attractive, or affect partner satisfaction? Check out this 3 minute video from AsapSCIENCE for some interesting facts and studies on the topic:
You know, I would call BS on all this big cock braggery, but the one cock I saw in a Arrowhead Stadium bathroom was fucking huge.
I wasn't purposely looking either. I had just turned around from using the urinal and a drunk dude was stumbling towards the urinal. He had whipped his Johnson out on his way to it. My guess is partly because he was drunk and partly because he was proud of it. Can't say I blame him. If mine was that size, I'd be whipping it out everywhere. And I would have already pm'ed hootie pics. [Reply]
When asked about examining 15,000 penises Clayton replied with "dude, it was the greatest job I ever had."
Now Clayton has "come" across "hard" times. The job market has "suffered from shrinkage" and the hours that were once "long" are now "shriveled" up. [Reply]

A) Bow your head in shame and walk out.
B) Walk over to the sink and pretend to wash hands until they finish.
C) Squeeze in like you belong as the CP poll indicates.
Dude. I'd climb on their shoulders if I had to piss bad enough. [Reply]

Im a small dude in stature (5-9") and even my dick is bigger than that.
I don't think the poll is inaccurate. Maybe some are lying, but i doubt most are.
5"...that's a small dick....
What is the specs for measuring a dick? That may be whats throwing all. Being a land surveyor we are experts in measurements but we need some guidelines.
Oh and by the way surveyors do measure up! [Reply]

Shrug. I go from the top of the base. 5"x3" seems pretty small. If you measure from the nutsack, then you probably end up with an extra inch or two. [Reply]

you know
because those high school football coach stop watches are so accurate (and they aren't trying to build up a false sense of confidence into these kids)
I don't think anyone realizes how fast a ****ing 4.7 40 is ... let alone a Chris Johnson 4.24
Yep. My school's "4.28" RB lasted one year of D1 ball. The SPARQ camps are doing a better job of getting accurate electronic times out there. Wasn't long ago that everybody was reported as having a 4.3-4.5 [Reply]
