Question
- What is the average penile length?
Answer
- Each penis is unique and will develop at different ages and rates.
- The average length of an erect penis is just under 14cm.
- What is really important is that people develop a healthy relationship with their bodies.
- Studies of heterosexual couples show the vast majority of women are satisfied with their partner’s penis size, yet 45 percent of men feel like their penis is too small.
- Studies have also repeatedly shown that many female partners prioritise how their partner acts towards them rather than penis size, for example whether they are romantic and sensitive to their needs and desires.
