What if only guys with big dicks were willing to do the study in modern times?

TLDR: 3cm in 3 decades. An insane amount.

It's a growing problem.

That's surely just nutrition, we've got taller as well.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

On the other hand there's definitely a preference for taller men when choosing a partner.

This headline really sent me into a panic!

I woke up Thursday to enlarged man parts. It was like someone slipped two lemons and a grapefruit into my pants overnight. Long story short doctor says it's an allergic reaction to something, I had to let the fluids drain back out, this accomplished by lying on my back for two days with it wrapped up in an Ace bandage pointed at the ceiling.

After seeing the headline I thought for sure it was happening globally pun intended

I confirm that mine has not increased in size over the last 30 years. Maybe I’m in the control group?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

you have to get a larger sample size 😆

It’s cool being big I guess, but just sort of pointless having nobody to appreciate it with.

Sounds good to me

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

But the penis contains potassium benzoate.

:( from everyone over 30.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

inb4 it's just due to higher blood pressure due to stress

Haha, looking at you slightly above average guys. Welcome to the club.
