You know those football players from highschool? All that physical conpetition must raise testosterone levels. And naturally more testosterone filled guys are probably drawn to sports where there muscles would help and stuff. Male sex hormones also grow the penis... So? Is my logic sound?

I would have played sports(baseball) but I tend to springing my ankle while doing such.
Few weeks ago I sprained my ankle while playing some softball at (can't say do to possibility to Id me then.) 3th time it has happened on my right foot also :(

A lot of people thought I sucked but I sure showed them.. :p

but I do love to play baseball but hate watching as it's soooooooooooo boring.

I just know the whats, not the whys. If I was to speculate I would say it's because everything else needs to be in proportion. You need larger legs to support a larger torso to support a larger head (not sure how much correlation there is between height and head size). The penis doesn't really need to conform to this.

I would say for the most part that many of the taller/larger individuals come from groups with an increased occurance of greater height and size than others. So, if being from one of groups in that region makes you bigger, it then follows that intermarraige among these people will most certainly provide larger offspring. As the female will be considerably taller than average, the male penis would most certainly have to evolve over time to acommadate his partner. I find the idea that the penis could remain out of this whole development, as if in splendid isolation, to be counter intuitive if not contrarian to natural evolution per se. I for would count it quite rare to find a 7 foot male with say for instance a 9 shoe size. Possible yes but somewhat improbable. Just in the same way that same 7 foot male with a 6 inch penis might be rare with greater probability that the chances of his penis size, just like his height, being above average is far more plausible.

A larger foot provides a larger surface area to support a larger body, so again, there is an evolutionary need for a larger man to have larger feet. Again, a larger penis does not serve a similarly necessary function. I am also not aware of any study that has shown that larger women possess larger vaginas. There are anecdotes, but plenty that defy this generalization as well. The simplest thing to say is that if there were a statistically significant difference, you would be able to find it noted somewhere and I'm not aware of this existing.

Doesn't do a damn thing for me either way, but if the data isn't there, it isn't there. If you can find any sort of reliable study that shows otherwise I will happily admit defeat.

There was a Dr online who theorized that larger penises were linked to early onset of puberty & were therefore more common in individuals who reached full adult height earlier & were typically average height as adults (in his judgement 5' 9" approx).

I'm sorry I can't provide the link to it & it wasn't exactly published in the Lancet.

Most likely there are multiple factors. Being athletic is certainly not a guarantee.

When I was a kid I was really weak, also I was quite weak as a teenager, but I have an above average penis, at least in length.

To determine whether "folk myths" regarding the relationships of penile size to body height and foot size have any basis in fact, 63 normally virilized men were studied. Height and stretched penile length were measured; shoe size was recorded and converted to foot length. Penile length was found to be statistically related to both body height and foot length, but with weak correlation coefficients. Height and foot size would not serve as practical estimators of penis length.

The only thing I have found that barely hints to a stats basis for height and penis size although with poor wider relationship characteristics. I just wonder if there any studies out there on increase of penis size in history in relation to increase of overall height around the world. Could a 5'2'' knight in the 1300's with a 4" sword cut the mustard against his 5'8' counterpart from say the 1800's and he carrying a 5" cutlass?. I am moved to think the vaginal size in women increased with the now larger body structure in very much the same way as it did for penis size in men. For it to remain independent would be interesting to consider if owning a large at 8" for any day on a 5'2" frame ...
Maybe unlikely that any evidence of data exists for proper analysis over time, the void being filled with reports with varying degrees of anecdotal soundness. And even now one guess is as good as another

One study found a weak correlation, but I doubt it is any greater than the difference between what one study found as an average versus another. I don't have access to the actual study so I can't say what the figures were, but I believe the standard deviation for penis length is about .5", so if it was over that I think it would not be noted as a weak correlation. I'm just not sure one study finding a difference in height leading to an increase in penis size of <.5" is all that substantive. In the same vein I'm not sure your theories about penis growth throughout the ages would pan out much better, but as you said, it is very unlikely that there is enough information there to form any sort of conclusions.

This is my opinion. Higher levels of DHT determine penis size. the short guy that has hair everywear and is balding has the bigger one. Keep drinking your green tea folks.

I have an another question. Why does human has so big penis at all? Compared to other primates it's very large.

That is true...and I also read somewhere that penises on some animals have a "spine" or something of the sort. I will have to find a link...

We really lucked out.

Growth of the penis is not mediated only by testosterone levels. It is also mediated by other hormones such as growth hormone and others. Also the response of the receptors in the tissue to the same level of testosterone can be different between two individuals.

I was not good at team sports as I did not know how to play and I did not like them.

However I had lots of body hair at an early age in HS. Body hair is mediated by testosterone for sure.

I have an average penis of 6-6.5 BPEL and 7 1/8 BPFLS (on the side after hanging weights for about a month), but I know realize (despite thinking that I have had a micro penis all my life..) that my unit is reasonable size, especially for my height and weight.

Probably about 5.5 to 6.5 BPFLS on the side before hanging...newbie gains since then have added about 5/8 inch.

Like I said I sucked at sports, was (and am) fairly short and light boned...5 foot 7 inches and about 140 lbs. But lots of body hair...too much in my opinion. And plenty of testosterone..have it measured...

Anyway....

I had little body hair, but my penis is above average. My penis head is small though, maybe testosterone is the reason for bigger or smaller penis head?

very hairless chest(just snail trail) ,arms and way less then average under arm hair(Did not come in tell I was 21)..
My legs are about average amount of hair... Also not much facial hair(I just shave it off since I look way better without any facial hair)

Not losing any head hair

The biggest thing I hate is when people question my age it really freaking annoys me, as I still look the same as when I was 15. Socially it has been nothing but problems as some teenagers think they can boss me around... But the look on their face is priceless when I tell them my age...


it should even be more priceless once I turn 23 in two months
