Chinese Men Measure Up to Others Below the Belt

2 hours, 26 minutes ago

HONG KONG (Reuters) - Chinese men have no reason to feel inferior about the size of their penises, according to a Hong Kong study which showed local men measured up to others elsewhere in the world below the belt.

"Our conclusion is that Hong Kong people are no smaller than Western men, where their penises are concerned," said Chan Lung-wai, director of the Urology Center at the Union Hospital, who headed the study.

"There has always been the myth that westerners have bigger penises and their (sexual) ability is better."

A group of scientists in Hong Kong spent five months from October last year measuring 148 ethnic Chinese volunteers aged between 23 and 93.

The average length of their flaccid penises was 3.33 inches, which compared favorably with similar studies on other men overseas.

Germans have average lengths of about 3.4 inches, Israelis 3.27 inches, Turks 3.07 inches and Filippinos 2.89 inches. Italians were the longest at 3.54 inches, and Americans averaged 3.46 inches.

The study did not measure the penises when they were erect.

It found that a man's height bore no relation to the length of his member, but those with higher body mass indexes, or fat content, appeared to have shorter penises.

"It seems that as someone gets older and fatter, his blood vessels change, so the penile size is not static. It may be a reflection of the condition of the person's blood vessels," Chan said, adding that this could spur yet another study.

From the article. . .

Well, being Italian and everything, I think they're spot on. . .nudge nudge, wink wink, say no mor', say no mor'.

I did find it mildly amusing though. First, who who were the scientists who gatherd the data, and how was it taken? I'd like to see the statistics and methodology. Was is just a gorup of sorority chicks who went around asking. How big are you?

Besides, when do people measure the "flacid" length anyways? I mean who cares what the length is flacid? Hell, I can go negative if the water is cold enough. It's the excited length I think people care about. I can't remember whipping out the good old yardstick to measure myself flacid, no you pull and stretch the damn thing to make sure every last meaningful cell is added up.

Now, for something serious, the study did mention that penis size "seemed" to be related to BMI. I actuall think there could be a genetic link between th two. Looking at evolution, women prefer men with larger members, so to speak. Well, if that is the case, wouldn't it fall in line with evolution and the perpetuation of species? I mean there probably is a genetic link between a mans penis size and his health. The healthier the man, the larger the penis. THere are always exceptions, but I would not be suprised to find that out.

Oh BTW, for the females out there I am one healthy Italian ;) :laugh:

That's what I was thinking. The flaccid length isn't necessarily an an accurate prediction of the size when erect.

Wife: How was your day at work today, Honey?

Husband: Busy day...had to measure 148 penises

(Every once in a while you come across something that makes you thankful for the job you have. This is one of those times:D )

Size not an issue ... although Italy out in front, study finds

Updated: 1:34 p.m. ET April 21, 2005HONG KONG -

Chinese men have no reason to feel inferior about the size of their penises, according to a Hong Kong study which showed local men measured up to others elsewhere in the world below the belt.

“Our conclusion is that Hong Kong people are no smaller than western men, where their penises are concerned,” said Chan Lung-wai, director of the Urology Center at the Union Hospital, who headed the study.

“There has always been the myth that westerners have bigger penises and their (sexual) ability is better.”

A group of scientists in Hong Kong spent five months from October last year measuring 148 ethnic Chinese volunteers aged between 23 and 93.

The average length of their flaccid penises was 8.46 centimeters (3.4 inches), which compared favorably with similar studies on other men overseas.

Germans have average lengths of about 8.6 centimeters, Israelis 8.3, Turks 7.8 and Filipinos 7.35. Italians were the longest at 9 centimeters and Americans averaged 8.8.

The study did not measure the penises when they were erect.

It found that a man’s height bore no relation to the length of his member, but those with higher body mass indexes, or fat content, appeared to have shorter penises.

“It seems that as someone gets older and fatter, his blood vessels change, so the penile size is not static. It may be a reflection of the condition of the person’s blood vessels,” Chan said, adding that this could spur yet another study.

"The study went on to say that their penis's were the same length when erect."

I keed. I keed. :D

One thing is for sure...I like the idea of measuring it centimeters...I mean what would you rather be? 8.46 centimeters or 3.4 inches? :D

I'm still wondering how they got flaccid results. The measurements must have been taken by Bea Arthur or Betty White. I know I'd have never been able to participate in that test because I probably wouldn't be able to keep the same criteria as... err... the control group... :laugh:

Kind of like comparing firearms by asking which one is better in the holster, huh?

.....Hmmm, nothing about men from African nations. I guess they're only worried about white devils.
