What is the average penis size of a man?
Various surveys have been conducted to determine the average penis size of a man. Some men may have smaller penis and other may have big penises just as people have different shoe sizes but the size of the penis is not an index of virility. Contrary to popular belief, it is not necessary that a tall man has a bigger penis. An average non-erect penis usually measures between 8.5cm and 10.5cm (3-4inches) from tip to base. Various factors may temporarily affect the size of the penis. For instances, the size of the penis may shrink by up to 2inches or more during cold weather or while swimming. During erection, the size of the penis increases and it has been found that most penises are very much the same size when erect. Men whose non-erect penis is smallish will usually achieve about a 100% increase in length during sexual excitement while men whose non-erect penis is on the largish size will probably manage about a 75% increase. Average length of erect penis varies from 5.1inches to 5.7i
