Erections
come in many shapes and sizes as seen in the photos on this
page (which is longer than most). Data on erect penis size,
obtained by measurements from 4,982 people, are arranged
in the following table and graphs. Click on the table and
graphs listed below to see erection data displayed.
All data are from reputable scientific journals (listed
in the references
section).
A
few important notes before comparing yourself are as follows.
Firstly, the data upon which these graphs are based are
derived from Caucasian and African Americans. People of
Asian and other descent were not included in these data,
and for these folk this information may not be accurate.
We are currently working on data for non-Caucasion/non-African-American
individuals.
Secondly,
keep in mind that erection size will differ depending on
the level of ones arousal, time of day, room temperature,
and recency of sexual activity. (The studies from
which these data were obtained did not standardize these
variables.) In addition, the presence of foreskin
technically increases the final length by a small amount
(about an eighth of an inch). Penis curvature also
will play a role in ones measurement. Most of these
minor variations, unless otherwise noted, are not accounted
for in the collected data.
