We humans tend to pair off, and females get more say in the matter. Or it could be that Gorillas establish mating rights by being the dominant male of a harem, and females don't get much of a choice, so the big Silverback doesn't need to attract females, he basically acquires them by combat. Humans carrying weapons are less likely to bite or get bitten in a fight.

Or it could be that in hand-to-hand fighting, a bigger penis is more vulnerable. It might be that peeing standing upright is easier to control with an extra inch or two.

It's we humans that have an unusually large one. And if you still feel like you’re coming up short, remember that compared to a gorilla you’re hung like a horse.The Gorilla is the normal one. So guys, if you’re reading this and are concerned about penis size, don't be. In the end, less than 3% of the population have penises that fall below the side of the ‘normal’ range, approximately 10cm long and 9.5cm around based on these latest findings, and even then there’s no reason that these guys can’t do a perfectly satisfactory job in the bedroom. Of course, if you are well endowed, chances are you’ll benefit from a bit of a confidence boost, but not much beyond that in terms of sexual performance. In a survey of over 50,000 heterosexual men and women, 85% of women reported that they were satisfied with their partner’s penis size while only 55% of men were satisfied with their members, suggesting that if penis size is an issue it exists primarily in men’s heads. Women also tend to think that men worry far too much about penis size. If this is the case, it’s unlikely penis size plays a role in eliciting pleasure beyond psychological factors like expectation and anticipation.įrom the limited range of studies conducted on female preference, women seem largely unbothered by penis size and are far more concerned with personality, intelligence, and humour.

Furthermore, extensive clitoral tissue exists beneath the skin on either side of the vagina whose function is poorly understood, but nonetheless may contribute to experiences of vaginal orgasm. To this end, these same studies found that penis size was unrelated to clitoral orgasm frequency. Vaginal orgasms in women tend to be quite rare though, with the majority of women orgasming clitorally. Two surveys found that women who prefer deeper vaginal stimulation unsurprisingly preferred longer penises. The limited evidence for a relationship between penis size and female pleasure during sex comes from studies of vaginal orgasm. Factors such as length of intercourse and erectile function play a much larger role in female pleasure than penis size. In terms of actual sexual pleasure, there is little reason to believe that a larger penis provides a great advantage. The fact that flaccid penises were used in this study confuses the results, as flaccid penises are a poor indicator of erect size. Interestingly however, height and penis size had an almost equal effect in increasing attractiveness. The appeal of larger penises was also more pronounced in taller men. In general, larger penises were preferred but with diminishing returns as penis size increased, suggesting an upper threshold of desirability. Another study had females rate 3D computer generated images of upright males with varying flaccid penis sizes. This is not necessarily the case however, with most women emphasising the importance of girth over length when it comes to pleasure during sex. When it comes to penis size and sex the prevailing assumption, especially amongst men, is that bigger is better.
