Penis Size Abnormality

What is the normal size of a penis for my age?

This used to be the #1 most frequently asked question at Cool Nurse. A reader sent in some answers. I thought this was worth putting on the site, but I do not know where he got it from. It might be from an Internet survey and may not be that accurate, it has been on this site since 2001.

These statistics are not clinical measurements, they are the average results of people who answered an Internet poll. If you know you are a late maturer, then the results for your age group will be meaningless — you need to look at a younger age group. Don’t be too concerned if you fall well outside the measurements for your age group. The penis is an organ that varies a lot from male to male - there is no “right†or “wrong†when it comes to penis size.

Measured along the top, how long is your erect penis?

By age, the averages found were:

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 6.2 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. Just a guess. (Several physicians suggested that the average penis size was about 6 inches, but they weren’t measuring.) So, an average of 6.2 seems incorrect and maybe guys taking the survey exaggerated.

By ethnicity (age 15 and over only):

Race

Size

Black 6.89″ (175 mm)
Asian 5.33″ (135 mm)
Caucasian 6.22″ (158 mm)
Hispanic 6.15″ (156 mm)
Native American 5.66″ (144 mm)

Here is a quote from the video library, by Donald E. Greydanus, MD
The size of your penis is simply determined by factors, called genetic traits, which you inherited from your parents. There is nothing you can do to increase or decrease the size of your penis — it will develop into its adult size as you change from a boy to a man through the process called puberty. Most boys start the changes of puberty between 10 and 14 years of age, though a few will start earlier or later than these ages. First, the testicles (balls) begin to enlarge and then hair starts to grow around the them. The penis then starts to enlarge, first in length and then later in thickness. Though there is much normal variation, the final penis size is reached four to six years after the testicles first started to enlarge.

This process of normal penis growth can be disturbing to many males. Since the testicles enlarge first (and later followed by growth of the penis), many young male teens do not notice the testicles growing and worry that they are not changing and that their penis is too small. If you are overweight, fat tissue can hide the penis somewhat and give an impression that the penis is smaller than it really is. Some males in your class may have started their changes of puberty well ahead of you and they may seem like they have an adult-size penis-that can be very upsetting!

It is difficult to know how large a penis will be in its erect state, simply by looking at it when not erect (or when flaccid). It is also true that adult penis size varies considerably from person to person. Just as with any body part, different people will have different penis sizes. We live in a society that pushes a myth that the male with a larger penis has a better sex life than one with a smaller penis. This is constantly noted in sexual jokes, in comments heard on TV, or in the movies and in many other places.

The truth is that normal penises vary a lot in size, and sex is just as good for all of these men. You sometimes need to wait a year or two after your overall height has stopped changing to see what final size your penis will be. If at any time during your growth period, you are worried that your penis is abnormal, just go to your doctor and ask him or her directly. In almost every case you will be told that it is fine.

 

 

New Research Finds Long-Suspected Link Between Hunting and Small Penis Size

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 9:59 am

Diminutive male genitalia disorder (DMGD) has, until this month, been considered only a theory in the scientific world, but now the long-suspected link between hunting and unusually small penis size has been established as scientific fact by the Diminutive Male Genitalia Disorder Research Organization (DMGDRO). The DMGDRO has conducted an extensive two-year study on men with diminutive male genitalia disorder.

Lead by Mike Streams and Brian Upchurch, who began their collaboration on human sexuality research while undergraduate students at Johns Hopkins University, DMGDRO is a team of New Orleans, Louisiana-based scientists interested in the study of male sexual disorders and dysfunction. Having identified the genetic disorder linking small male reproductive organs and the ability to derive pleasurable sensations from killing in a controlled environment without fear of personal harm (as differentiated from war or fighting back in an attack by a human being), also known as “controlled victim†aggression manifestation, Streams and Upchurch believe that there may be ways to combat men’s feelings of inadequacy and curb some of the destructive behaviors that such men engage in as coping mechanisms.

“It’s really quite interesting,†Dr. Streams says. “Like much folklore, it appears that, certainly in this case, there is a foundation in fact. This is the first time that research has been conducted on men who hunt, and it shows quite definitively that the link between what we are calling ‘the thrill of the kill’ and a smaller-than-average penis is statistically significant.”

Initial tests conducted on mice and rabbits proved inconclusive, but subsequent human test subjects showed what Dr. Upchurch calls “staggering results.†The subjects ranged from having a slight abnormality in penis size to a “pubis innyus†or inverted male pubic region. As data were gathered, the numbers revealed a discrepancy so great that it seemed to suggest a genetic mutation. By tracing what has been identified as the “DMGD gene,†an abnormality was discovered on the 21 st chromosome. Further investigation proved that this abnormality is consistently linked to two traits: abnormally small reproductive organs and “controlled victim†aggression manifestation. Drs. Streams and Upchurch and their colleagues theorize that an extreme case of DMGD may have been to blame in the 2004 Sawyer County, Wisconsin, incident in which a hunter went on a rampage, shooting at a group of other hunters and killing six of them.

Reaction from participants has been positive, and subjects described the results as liberating and a relief to finally be able to label their problem as a legitimate medical disorder.

Dr. Upchurch reports, “The first step in the treatment of a disorder is to understand its origins. We are pleased to have crossed that important threshold.â€
