Of course you're going to have outliers, but if the data is skewed enough in either way but the average is still a solid inch, that's quite a lot. That's how averages work. Having people fall on either side of the average but still coming up with that number actually says more.

It depends on how many outliers there are. But considering a "normal" penis (as opposed to an average one) is generally considered as one within 4-8 inches (under 3.5 inches and you are designated with a condition known as micropenis... and over 8 then you're just extremely rare) I would guess that when expressed as a bell curve, the data would mostly overlap.

I'd assume there'd be a lot of outliers. 4-8 inches is extremely broad, but most resources will give a definitive answer of about 5. Therefore, it's assumed it would be quite easy to fall on either side of this number with a 4-8 spread.

Definitive answer? You mean definitive average?

If I remember correctly, most resources say that it is anything but definitive (It is often acknowledge that various surveys often produce different averages but that average tends to fall in between 5-6.)

But anyway... I guess we are in agreement?

On average shorter yes, both in height and in length.
Lots of guys here are taller than me, generally I'm taller though.

If you wanna take a shot in the dark you're aiming at odds.

In my experience, going the other way, Japanese women are generally significantly more petite down there than their wester counterparts, then again a few of the women I've been with here have been more spacey than the westerners I was with...

Sure.. but the odds aren't as stacked in your favour as you might think though which is my point. If you're considered "around average" in Japan you're probably "around average" in America (for a white person).

On another note... black guys win the "on average" dick measuring contest so us white people should stop comparing ourselves collectively to Asians to make ourselves feel better lol.

If you have a daughter and she decides to "play the odds"... then expect Black grandchildren lol :mtongue:

That says nothing since France is full of Arabs and Africans.

If we're going by race it's black people. If we're going by nationality I think it's not France but somewhere Africa. (Cameroon I think)

lol.. yeah it kinda is because it's literally about penis size. (Not sure if it's a New Zealand wide colloquialism but in my group of friends at least... to have a "dick measuring contest" is to argue or talk about something so stupid or irrelevant simply to boost your ego or status)

But yeah.. it particularly annoys me how this stereotype feeds overall into whitey's superiority complex over not just Japanese... but Asians in general and is really not all that different to how whitey sees itself as superior to the black man.

In the same way as Africans or Arabs are stereotyped as "savage" and "stupid" (or at the very least not as smart).. Asians are stereotyped as being effeminate (or at the very least not as manly).

And these misunderstood statistics surrounding penis size feed into that stereotype which is stupid on two counts because a) It doesn't really work on an individual level and is really not all that much of an "advantage" (as I try to explain in a statistical way) but also b).. because it doesn't REALLY matter. I mean having a bigger member is definitely an advantage. But so is not being overweight or hairy (something East Asians beat white people in statistically)
