A question often asked is what’s the average length of a penis.

A non-erect penis usually measures between 3-4 inches from tip to base.

Many factors can cause a temporary shrinkage of two inches or more, for instance cold weather or going swimming, so you needn’t worry if you happen to fall short of the average.

Of course, it’s true that some men have big penises and some have smaller ones, just as some men have small feet and some have big feet, but the measurement is not - an index of virility.

Most people think that a tall man will usually have a large penis, but this is not true. The distinguished American researchers Masters and Johnson measured the penile lengths of more than 300 men.

• The largest organ was 5.5 inches in the flaccid state. It belonged to a slim man who was 5′ 7″ tall.
• The smallest penis measured 2.25 inches. It belonged to a fairly heavily built man of 5′ 11″.

It’s also worth pointing out that there is no correlation between penile size and race.
