hehe hi guys <3
i wanna talk about an importannt issue: penis size
u know how people say "its not the size, it's how u use it" yeah well thats something guys with small dicks say!!! im not even kidding. how manny well endowed guys do U know who says this?
when i gossip with my bffs we never say "so how did he use his penis?" we ALWAYS ask how big it was! xD
i red an article today about this and really wanted to share
The study, published earlier this year, found that penis size has about the same influence as height in determining how females rated the attractiveness of males. The authors suggested that sexual selection of this trait could explain why human's have the largest penis to body size ratio of all primates.

yep science says its true! whats yer opinion?

The article contradicts a lot of previous research about human sexuality done by some of the top researchers in the field. And the worst sex I've ever had was with the guy with the biggest penis I've ever had. Aren't shorter ones better for g-spot thrusting anyway?
Apes look at other factors when selecting mates, like how blue the butt is and other things.
Judging by the abstract and title, there were a lot of "buts" in the findings. I'd love to critique the entire article (in getting my degree, I had a class where we had to bring in an article critique daily, so I've had quite a bit of practice) but it wants me to pay for access and I'm too cheap for that.
Anyway (from the abstract of the article that the one you linked is from):
"based upon female assessment of digitally projected life-size, computer-generated images," Computer generated images are rarely used when measuring attractiveness because people have been found to I accurately rate them; as in, there's no correlation between how people rate a computer generated face with three characteristics and a real face with those same three characteristics but with other human details.
" the marginal increase in attractiveness eventually declined with greater penis size" translates to "they liked them when they were a but bigger, but really big ones weren't preferred over medium/big ones (I wish I had access to the article for the full size). The article you linked claims it was 3 inches flaccid that women stopped caring after, but, mind you, flaccid doesn't carry into erect. Some men with small flaccid penises have large erect ones. Furthermore, it has been found several times that the average flaccid size for males is 3.5 inches, so, basically, all that the article is saying is that women like penis that are average more so than small ones, and that, at larger than average, they stop caring.
"Penis size had a stronger effect on attractiveness in taller men than in shorter men" which implies proportions played a role here. " Surprisingly, larger penis size and greater height had almost equivalent positive effects on male attractiveness" I wonder if they did an interaction effect analysis. I'd love to read their results section. Someone should get their hands on this article for me.
Anyway tl;dr: You should go back and read that. And I need a copy of the article for a full analysis. But this article isn't claiming that bigger is better, just that average is better than small.
