They claim that they exclude self-reported studies, but there's several self-reported studies in their dataset, like Herbenick or Di Mauro.

They did not even account correctly for different measurement techniques.

In the past studies were more commonly done Non-Bone-Pressed (measuring from the skin junction), but modern studies are typically done Bone-Pressed (pushing the ruler into the fat pad).

For example for the 90s they used the 5.1" NBP average of Wessels et al 1996, but the 6.2" BP average it reported is in line with recent studies.

They claim that they only use NBP studies, but especially in the recent studies most were done BP. So the average penis size didn't necessarily change significantly. The way we measure penises in studies did.


Basically, this is junk, lol. (oh damnit, honestly there was no pun intended there)
