All in the name of science…
A new study, published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine has revealed the average man boasts an erect penis size of 5.6 inches.
The research, carried out at Indiana University and titled “Erect Penile Length and Circumference Dimensions of 1,661 Sexually Active Men in the United States” was published last week.
As researchers were relying on self-reporting, questions were raised as to how honest the average man would be when tallying his tackle, so to speak. To counteract this, Debby Herbenick, Ph.D., M.P.H of PsychologyToday.com explained: “We were using their size data to match them to a condom that was sized to fit their erect penis. If they reported a bigger-than-reality size to us, they would get a baggier condom. If they reported a smaller-than-reality size to us, the condom would be too tight.” Clever.
The average erect circumference of was found to be 4.8 inches, and lengths ranged from 4 to 26 centimeters erect.
To date, there has been no similar study carried out on Irish men, but as long as he feels like this, then that’s really all that matters, right?
