What is the average size of a penis?

FIRST: You can worry about it all you want, but most likely you are quite average.
====
The length is measured only when erect. There's a saying that erections equal out the differences in size among men. You can't tell anything from the flaccid state. And you can't trust measurments made by a man and then reported to a survey (see next-to-last paragraph in this answer).

The average length, according to the first source below, is 6.16 inches (when erect) and average girth is 4.84".

The same website lists another study showing average length of 5.1"/girth 4.9" and a third study showing average length 5.7"/girth 4.7".

A fourth study says average length is 5.7" to 6".

A condom manufacturer says 5.877" length/4.972" girth. They ALSO say:
"It is fair to say that in all cases, where medical staff has measured erect penis size, the average length has been below 6 inches and in every case where the surveys rely on self-measurement and voluntary reporting the average leaps over six inches. Interestingly average girth remains around 5 inches in all surveys.

Using the figure of 5.877 inches from the LifeStyles Condoms Average Penis Size Survey it appears that men on average exaggerate their penis length by a quarter to a half an inch when they are permitted to measure and report their own size.

The results do show that the difference between small penises, average penis size and large penises is not so great as folklore might have us believe."

Thats because most guys are embarased about how small their penis really is. They hear people talking about oh mine is 7in. but big deal, it's not gonna help you if you don't know how to use it =) lol... You see... Mine is 5.9-6in something like that... I measured it when I was on the phone with the last girl I was talking to because she wanted to know... But after I found out she lied about her age I told her we couldn't be together.

I have been with enough men in my life to know, if your under 7, you are considered small,My husband was 8, and my bf now is 9.5. As a DeeP woman, you have to be intimate with a larger man for full excitement..
