But there are things that men should now about women before they worried too much about size. First, some women really dislike the idea of a large penis, and may be frightened by one that is too long. And second, some women are much more impressed by the thickness of a penis, rather than its length. This is because some females like the sense of feeling stretched round the entrance to the vagina.

Average Penis Size

American Plastic Surgery Academy, classified the average penis sizes when fully erect as below:

1. Micro-penis, less than 2.75″ (7 cm)
2. Small penis, less than 3.93″ (10 cm)
3. Normal penis, between 4.72″-6.69″ (12 cm – 17 cm)
4. Large penis, more than 7.08″  (18 cm).

While international condom company, Durex, classified average full-erect penis size based on their survey on four different races as below:

1. Caucasian: 6.39″ (16.2 cm)
2. African: 6″ (15.2 cm)
3. Hispanian: 5.8″ (14.7 cm)
4. Asian: 5.31″ (13,5 cm)

Another result of studies by some laboratoriums also stated these facts:

  • Average penis length (flaccid/not erect): from 3.4 inches to 3.7 inches (8.6 cm to 9.3 cm)
  • Average penis length (erect): from 5.1 inches to 5.7 inches (12.9 cm to 14.5 cm)
  • Average penis girth (circumference when erect): from 3.5 inches to 3.9 inches (8.8 cm to 10 cm)

If you checked those stats above, you might think that average penis sizes are lower than what you’ve expected. That might be because you made the wrong comparison all these time. Never trust what you’ve seen in adult movies, nor the stats that given by some enlargement products, that’s not valid because they only want you to purchase their items.
