Penis Shape And Size
What is a Normal Sized Penis?:
One of the difficulties you may come across in your quest to establish what
normal penis size is (flaccid or erect) is that global statistics are not
always easy to come by that have been properly scientifically collated. There
are a number of internet polls and various survey statistics available but it
does not take much imagination to realize that the statistics may well be
flawed. Often the results are pooled from 'self-reports' and as this relies on
men being absolutely truthful about their penis size there may be a bias
towards exaggerate claims. What would you say if called to measure yours?
Would you round up the figure rather than down? Flaccid penis size is no
indicator of erect penis size. In some men their penis hardly changes size
between flaccid and erect states. Other men may have fairly modest flaccid
penis sizes but have a much larger erection. Interestingly it is often flaccid
penis size that concerns men the most. Temporary size increase can be achieved
through the use of penis pumps but care has to be taken not to be over
enthusiastic.
Anyway, for those of you still concerned, here are some
solid statistics:
Average adult flaccid penis is in the range 2.5 to 4.5
inches (6-11 centimeters)
Average adult erect penis is in the range 4 to 8 inches
(10-20 centimeters)
Curved penis:
Like other physical characteristics,
penises come in different shapes and sizes. Some are longer, some are shorter,
some are broader, some are narrower, some curve to the left, some to the right,
some not at all. Erection is caused during arousal by more blood flowing into
the penis than flows out. However, erect does not mean exactly straight as an
arrow, hard as nails, perpendicular to your body, and parallel to the floor.
Each person's erection is unique as well.
Does your penis change at all when you are excited? Do you experience orgasm and
ejaculate when you masturbate? If all of your answers are "yes," then you don't
have a problem � your penis seems to be behaving normally. It may only be your
expectations that are a problem. If you answered "no" to any of these questions,
you need to make an appointment with a psychiatrist.
