Does size matter?
Some say yes, others say no. Mostly, it comes down to a lover's preference.
But hey, for whatever reason, men around the world are obsessed with their penises, comparing them and knowing how their appendage stacks up.
Scientists from King's College London and London National Health Service measured more than 15,000 men’s penises to find out what size is “normal”. This study revealed that the average flaccid penis is 9.16 cm long, 13.24 cm when erect and 9.31 cm in circumference.
Back in 2015, someone thought it would be a good idea to crunch all the global data to find out once and for all, which country boasts the biggest average penis size.
The top four countries, according to the data (which to be honest wasn't exactly obtained in the most scientific way) are:
- Congo (17.9 cm)
- Ecuador 6.9 (17.7 cm)
- Ghana (17.3 cm)
- Venezuela (16.9 cm)
But guess what, the country in the fifth place is actually in the Arab world!
Check the ranking below to find out how Arab nations compare and which country made it to the global top 10 (note: data was only available for 14 countries from the Arab League, which includes 22 nations).
