While there have been previous attempts to quantify average penis size, these studies varied considerably in measurement of flaccid and erect state, racial groups, age and whether measurements were conducted by a professional or by the participants themselves who may have felt inclined to fudge the numbers somewhat. This most recent study from the UK conducted a systematic review of twenty previous studies of penis size which included over 15,000 men from a diverse range of ages and ethnic groups. If this is the case, it’s unlikely penis size plays a role in eliciting pleasure beyond psychological factors like expectation and anticipation. From the limited range of studies conducted on female preference, women seem largely unbothered by penis size and are far more concerned with personality, intelligence, and humour.
