The average penis length has increased over the past 30 years, a new study has revealed, but experts warn it might not be the ideal reality every mans dreamed of. As it turns out, size does matter: Researchers fear the phallic inflation is due to unhealthy habits, like binging junk food or being mostly sedentary, or even pollution. Any overall change in development is concerning because our reproductive system is one of the most important pieces of human biology, Dr. Michael Eisenberg, the studys author, told Stanford Medicines blog Scope. If were seeing this fast of a change, it means that something powerful is happening to our bodies. Published in the World Journal of Mens Health, the Stanford University study analyzed data from 75 studies with over 55,000 men from 1992 to 2021, focusing on the length of an erect penis. Researchers discovered that the average penis size had grown a staggering 24% over nearly three decades.

Erect penile length is getting longer, from an average of 4.8 inches to 6 inches, over the past 29 years, Eisenberg said. While more studies are needed to confirm the findings and, if confirmed, determine the cause of the changes, this researchs conclusions are hard for experts to swallow. Eisenberg assumed hed see a decline in length but instead, he found the opposite. Past studies have claimed pollution is shrinking the peen yet this study may prove those findings false. American males penises rank only 59th in the world, and other research has linked size to a number of social and health consequences. One study found that the larger the dong, the bigger the personality, while another concluded that men with shorter members are more likely to spend big bucks on sports cars. In 2018, a study led by Dr. Austen Slade from the University of Colorado claimed that well-endowed men were less likely to face infertility issues. But the deep dives on penis size have been criticized for preying on male insecurities, specifically as it relates to infertility. We give men such a bad press all the time and the one thing that scares them is that size matters. To now say they have a smaller chance of becoming a father is not a good message, said Sheena Lewis, from Queens University Belfast, at the time of the infertility study, which found that smaller penises are linked to fertility problems. This is also a problem you cannot find a solution to what can you do about it? This is a very novel idea but the study does not tell us what a normal penis length is, she added.

Yay. A study looking at other studies says penises are getting bigger. No mentions if they combined self reported polls with the ones where dudes actually get measured with a ruler. Or that if you go around saying we are looking to measure dicks small dick dudes might pass on being measured.
