average size of penis?

Question

average size and lenght of penis

Answer 1

Being a counselor and researcher, I've read a lot of different surveys about penis averages. Some say that the average is anything between 5-7 inches, some other surveys indicate an average of 5 1/2 - 6 1/2 inches. But those are not true averages, there can be only ONE average number. What they really are giving us, are average ranges.

Down below I’ll be posting the results of some studies. Conducted on both adults and minors. As you’ll see, averages in both of the teen these tables support the averages stated previously for adults. Unless the doctors in this study lied about the size of the penis of their patients or their penis shrank after the age of 20, the studies that suggest 5” as the average size are incorrect. As a researcher, you have to look at the whole picture from different angles. Unfortunately, it’s a well known fact in psychology, that people can and generally do, gather only the information that supports their theories and personal convictions, and ignore the rest.

Since I’m a clinical counselor and researcher, I come across tons of research reports. Not just regarding penis size, but research reports in general. It is true that some studies suggest that the average penis size is about 5", but for every study that suggests that, there are 2 or 3 that suggest otherwise. Based on all the studies that I've come across (studies of both adults and teens), as well as from my own findings, is that the average penis size is more like 6".

So use common sense and don’t buy everything the you read or hear from the news media. Quite often what you read in news papers, magazine articles and the media in general, has been distorted from the real facts.

An excellent example is how the media distorted the factual results of lab research that showed promising outcome in cancer treatment with shark cartilage. I’m sure you remember that one. Well, I read the actual reports submitted by the researchers, and they never claimed that it could cure cancer. Not like the media stated. Because of the irresponsible actions of the news media, sharks are still to this day being butchered for their cartilage. If people would only take the time to read the actual reports, they would realized, based on the information given by the conducting researchers, that grinding the cartilage and taking it orally, DOES NOT WORK! The cartilage will never make it into the blood stream because the particles are too big in size to make it through the intestinal wall which acts like a filter. Therefore you defecate it. Literally, it’s like throwing money down the toilet.

Back to the subject, I personally have asked (in a candidly matter) male clients about their penis size and I’ve even asked female clients about their partner’s size, and by doing some simple math, I’ve concluded that the figures bellow are more accurate. FYI: I’ve asked my clients about the size issue because the situation merited the question.

There are four studies that made news when each came out, and these have a single digit average instead of a range.

The first one is the famous Kinsey Sex Institute study. In the 1960s they asked over 3500 college males to measure themselves.
average penis length: 6 inch (15.2 cm)
average penis girth: 5 inch (12.7 cm)

Then there is the now famous Richard Edwards' Definitive Penis Size Survey Results with over 3000 participants.
average penis length: 6.3 inch (16 cm)
average penis girth: 5.1 inch (13 cm)

Another survey is the one done by Durex (just under 3000 participants):
average penis length: 6.4 inch (16.3 cm)
average penis girth: 5.2 inch (13.3 cm)

A more recent study was performed by Lifestyles Condom Co. in March 2001. They measured 300 college-aged students:
average penis length: 5.9 inch (15 cm)
average penis girth: 5 inch (12.7 cm)

In an article written b Dr. David Delviony (GP and family planning specialist) and Christine Webber (psychotherapist), they wrote the following. “In round figures, this means that the great majority of men measure between 15cm (6") and 18cm (7") in the erect position, with the average figure being about 16.5cm (6 ½").”

Here are also the results of a couple of studies conducted on minors. I trust the second study more than the first and I'll explain why in the conclusions.

By age, the averages found were:


FIRST STUDY (averages of measurements given by teens to a survey done by researchers)
Age....... Size
12....... 4.1" (104 mm)
13....... 5.1" (130 mm)
14....... 6.0" (152 mm)
15....... 6.1" (155 mm)
16....... 6.3" (160 mm)
17....... 6.5" (165 mm)
18....... 6.4" (163 mm)
19....... 6.2" (157 mm)
20....... 6.2" (157 mm)

Conclusions:

The average adult penis size is about 6.1 inches or (157mm). It is interesting that in this study, penis size 'peaks' at age 17. Since penises do not get smaller as a male approaches age 21, it can be concluded that boys aged 16, 17, and 18 are most likely to exaggerate the size of their penises.

SECOND STUDY (averages of measurements taken by doctors)
Age....... **Erect Length (inches & centimeters)
11....... 3.0" (3 and 0/16ths") 7.5 cm
12....... 3.8" (3 and 13/16ths") 9.6 cm
13....... 4.8" (4 and 13/16ths") 12.3 cm
14....... 5.4" (5 and 6/16ths") 13.6 cm
15....... 5.6" (5 and 10/16ths") 14.3 cm
16....... 5.7" (5 and 11/16ths") 14.5 cm
17....... 5.8" (5 and 13/16ths") 14.8 cm
18....... 5.8" (5 and 13/16ths") 14.8 cm
19+….. 5.9" (5 and 14/16ths") 14.9 cm

Conclusions:

This table is a collection of measurements from doctors and pediatric physicians. They do not measure the boys' penises while they have erections. The length of the erect penis can be determined by stretching the flaccid penis from the tip as far out as it will comfortably extend. It is then measured from the tip to the base while flaccid (and still extended). The measurement is then taken for the medical records of boys who have had developmental concerns, urogenital diseases, or penis injuries. It does not take long for a group of physicians to determine averages and normal variations when they see hundreds of patients per year.

No matter which study you believe, keep in mind that penis growth among teens differs widely. For a young male, trying to interpret a table of averages is not necessarily easy nor beneficial. Young men who read this may try to make comparisons with themselves and this table. Please be advised that you should use this tables ONLY as "average reference". Remember, when an "average measurement" is listed, that means approximately 50% of all young men are shorter than this number (and about 50% are larger). Less than 1% of males are exactly average. That means less than 1 out of 100 men will match the average number exactly. Beware that averages are actually known as "statistical means" and they are typically used in the context of medicine and statistical sciences rather than personal counseling. Nevertheless, the table can still be used as a good reference for average penis growth over time.

Answer 3

The top list is bit racier than the previous lists, but subject matter, the famous penises, does not just change the fact that there is rating system. If you are just sensitive to these things read some other list. So how does someone get penis listed as the most famous of the all-time? Well, it should just be or have been point of the discussion, culturally relevantly and also probably bigger than average penis. Of course it also helps if the thousands or the millions of people have just seen it.

Answer 6

Measurements vary, with studies that rely on self-measurement reporting a significantly higher average than those with staff measuring. However, the mean of an erect human penis is approximately 12.9–15.0 cm (5.1–5.9 in) in length. Flaccid penis length is a poor estimate of erect length

Answer 7

body height and penis length at the on the spot are not appropriate. I continually concept having a distinct call (eg: Cade, Harris, Bartholomew, etc) replaced right into a hallmark of longer penis sizes. Names at the on the spot are not appropriate to both one. unluckily!

Answer 8

the average penis is 10 inches 8 inches means your small

Answer 9

Unless you have atleast 10 inches, it's small. You should invest in penis enlargement pills.

Answer 10

6 inches

Answer 11

Ok, ok, think about this. There is no definite size. Everyone is different. Your length will increase with age, and it helps not to compare yourself to others. Doing that just makes you feel worse.
