Despite this common knowledge, there’s still a huge fixation with size, from people bragging about their ‘whopper’ to making fun of others for their ‘small d**k energy’.
Yet, an expert has noted that many men are actually closer to average than they believe.
Dr. Malik, who is both a Urologist and a Pelvic Surgeon, revealed in one of her videos the ‘normal’ penis size and discussed what it might imply if yours is smaller than average.
In her discussions about whether there are ‘scientifically proven ways to increase penile length’, she turned to research to provide some reassurance.
Despite this dissatisfaction, an overwhelming 85 percent of their partners expressed being ‘satisfied’ with how their willies looked.
The doctor pointed out that much of this dissatisfaction is fueled by how pornography distorts perceptions of what is normal.
“And it’s normal for penile length to be within two and a half standard deviations of that,” she continued.
“So, what’s considered abnormal, in terms of length being too short, would be anything less than 2.9 inches (7.5cm).”
Indeed, gentlemen, that measurement is what defines a micropenis.
The surgeon mentioned that these could be ‘congenital abnormalities, hormonal issues, previous surgical procedures, or even cancer’.
Nevertheless, many still wish for a longer size. “And this is a form of body dysmorphic disorder. It actually has a term, it’s called small penis anxiety” she explained.
“[This] can have dramatic consequences,” the doctor warned.
“So please don’t do that – look for a reputable urologist or psychologist to help you with these issues.”
So remember guys, don’t get too caught up in boasting or worrying – chances are, you’re pretty much average.
