Is it true that the average penis size is only 5 inches, and anything above or below that size is uncommon?

In the US, the average size is 5.6", with around 70% of men being in the range of 5.2"-6.1" long. The average size varies a bit from country to country (just like height or shoe size or anything else), but the US is a pretty good world average given the amount of ethnic diversity we have.

And most things in nature occur in a standard distribution, which looks like this:

Is it true that the average penis size is only 5 inches, and anything above or below that size is uncommon?

The vast majority of the people are going to be close to average, and the further away you go from the average, the number of people drop exponentially. Penises that are really huge or really tiny are very rare.

The problem is that the main place people see penises today is in porn, but porn stars are picked almost exclusively from the top 0.1% in penis size. It would be like trying to determine what people's average height was by using the heights of the players in an NBA championship game - your numbers would be completely skewed.

You can do an online search and see that the average is about 5 to 5.5 inches. I do not know how many guys you have had sex with but you will find out that it is how well he learns to use what he has as well as his tongue. What are your thoughts?

Apparently the average size is something like 5.5 inches, but the variation is wide.

And I've read that over half of men are between 5 and 6. But there's still about a quarter smaller and a quarter bigger.

But it's what you do with it that counts.

Is average at 5 but many are bigger or smaller

No, the average-sized dick is bigger than 5”, and it’s also not abnormal to be outside the average. I’ve given blowjobs to about 20 different men, each of them bigger than 5”, with one guy at a length of 9”+, and the average about 7”
I prefer the guy I’m hooking up with to be about 7-8”, because when I’m sucking cock, I love the feel, size, and heft of cocks what around that size

I've also heard its in the range of 5". But people are really really terrible at estimating the size of a penis. A lot of people think a soda can is 6" tall and 3" across. (If you don't already know, guess, then go measure one)

BradBoy · Answer

I don't have a lot of sample size but I've sucked 3 guys and between the 3 of them and me, the average is more like 7. So either that number's off or I've just been lucky I guess.

I have read that average sizes have increased in recent decades. Guessing Natural Selection by women played a part. But sizes range from a nub to maybe 14 inches.

CandyRat · Answer

No, it's more than that.

Lottifan · Answer

The average dick size is estimated to be 5.5 inches. It’s not uncommon to find bigger or smaller dicks.

JordanianNumetal · Answer

its not about the size its how you use it bud. it doesn't matter. There is so much leading up to using it that is 100x more important. The last thing you should be worried about is what someone else has. Get a great career that pays well and they will all flock to you irrelevant of anything about you.

kellytheman · Answer

I have heard that but I also the average penis sized also increased. I am in the uncommon category by being above what is consider average but I think it's just a hypothetical or theory statement.

Average is supposed to be 5-7 inches so 5 is just within ave range, but still small if that makes sense? just as important as size is volume of cum imho,,,
