The researchers found that length of the penis rated sixth on the list of importance, and girth was rated third.
After overall appearance, women ranked the appearance of pubic hair and skin around the area as the second most important factor followed by girth. Before this study, it was unclear whether the hypospadias-affected surgically repaired genitals (HASRGs) appeared abnormal to others as well, and in general what part of penile appearance was relevant to women (and therefore played a role in considering one “normal”).
In regards to what makes a penis ideal, scientists also deduced that there’s “no single penile aspect that is essential”.
Most women found the dicks normal-looking.
The controls of this experiment were circumcised penises because the absence of foreskin more closely resembles a penis that has undergone surgery for hypospadias.
“The information may help prevent the development of shame or impaired genital perceptions about penile appearance”, said Norma Ruppen, the study’s lead author, according to Eureka Alert. Big penises are out, and handsome penises with nice skin and hair are in.
