Where Is A Bigger Member: Global Ranking By Average Size

Who is World Population Review?

World Population Review is an independent, for-profit organization that collects and analyzes demographic data from around the world. Their statistics are regularly updated, and sources and methodology are attached to each table. That is, if you decide to check where the figure about Sudan came from, it can be done.

What the statistics say

The average length of an erect penis in men, according to various studies, is 12.9 to 13.92 centimeters. This figure is consistently repeated in scientific publications, although for some reason it is always higher in the mass consciousness. Scientists emphasize: Size is not related to fertility or the number of sexual partners. And myths about the dependence of length on height, the size of palms or shoes have long been refuted. Nevertheless, men around the world continue to Lower self-esteem, believing that "everyone else has more."

What affects the length

Racial differences, contrary to popular belief, Minimal.
A 2014 study of more than 1,600 men from the U.S. found that the average difference between whites, blacks, Asians, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders is less than one inch – that is, less than 2.5 centimeters.

But the influence of the environment and health is being discussed more and more actively.
Scientists suggest that Poor nutrition in childhood, гормональные нарушения and exposure to pesticides and plastics can affect the development of the genitals.

Even during a mother's pregnancy — if she has been exposed to certain medications or chemicals — it can affect the size of the baby's penis.

Some studies note that Circumcision in infancy is also associated with slightly smaller sizes, although the difference is statistically insignificant.

But radiation therapy in adult men, according to doctors, can really shrink the organ.

Myths and misconceptions

Scientists have long found out that the relationship between the height and length of the penis Discreet. The same applies to "folk methods" - such as determining by the size of the hand or shoes. At the same time, men, as a rule, overestimate average size in the world, but underestimated own.

Why this data can't be fully trusted anyway

Even the most accurate ratings suffer from errors.

First, the data is taken from Different Regional Studieswhere measurement methods may differ. Second, many studies are based on самоотчётах "This means that exaggerations are not excluded. In addition, men with larger sizes are likely to more likely to agree to participate in researchthan the others, hence the sampling bias.

Therefore, tables with exact numbers should be treated calmly: these are Approximate picture, and not a strict truth.
