Research Says Small Penis Syndrome Affects Men Than Women
Women are much more interested in a man’s personality and looks than the size of his penis, but men can experience real anxiety even if they are average sized, according to a research review published in the June issue of the urology journal BJU International.

Dr Kevan Wylie from the Porterbrook Clinic and Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield, UK, reports that while men often have a better body image, genital image and sexual confidence if they have a large penis, women don’t necessarily feel that bigger is better.

He teamed up with Mr Ian Eardley from St James’ Hospital in Leeds to bring together the findings of more than 50 international research projects into penile size and small penis syndrome carried out since 1942.

By drawing together the results of 12 studies that measured the penises of 11,531 men, they discovered that average erect penises ranged from 14-16cms (5.5 to 6.2 inches) in length and 12-13cm (4.7 to 5.1 inches) in girth.

Wylie and Eardley also looked at the bizarre practices used by men worldwide to enhance the size of their penis, including the Topinama of Brazil, who encourage poisonous snakes to bite their penises to enlarge them for six months!

They report that Indian Sadhus men are known to use weights to increase the length of their penis and Dayak men in Borneo pierce the glans of their penis and insert items into the holes to stimulate their partner.

I think that Penis enlargement is an important option that all men who are unhappy with their size should keep in mind. If women can enlarge their breats, I do not see why it is not accepted for men to do the same.

I have a very small penis. When hard it is only 4+ inches. I grew up in a family of four boys who entered puberty early and were developed like porn stars. They made fun of me. In PE classes it was terrible. I did not enter pubety until I was 17. I did not have body hair and looked like a baby. My penis did not grow even in puberty. The thickness is very small. I would really like some info regarding penis extenders or something to thicken my penis. My wife does not fuss about it, but I know she would like something that penetrates much deeper and fuller. I know the vagina does "hug" the penis regardless of size but I also know she would feel better if she had to accept a more normal size. The physicians have all passed off my questions by saying size does not matter. I know it does. Any help for me. I would really like to try an extender to see if it worked but know nothing about them. Please help me.

It is not the size that matters - it is how you use it that matters. if your wife is happy why do you want an extender. All these Porn movies have gib\v en some men a complex. Extras long penis can also hurt a women.

Most serious studies report an average penis size of between 5 and 6 inches (13-15 cm). Most vagina's are 4-5 inches (10-13cm) deep with the first 3 inches the most sensitive. So if you have a penis longer than 3 inches, you're pretty much good to go. Keep it up!
