As we saw previously (http://condomsizeandfacts.blogspot.com/2011/10/simple-truth-about-penis-circumference.html), the average erect penis dimensions are as follow:
- average erect penis circumference: 121.67mm +-13.34mm (4.79in +-0.53in)
- average erect penis length (remember to press the pubic bone with your ruler): 147.64mm +-19.78mm (5.81in +-0.78in).
The scientific community considers that any penis fitting within the mean + or - 2 standard deviations is perfectly normal. As an example, the condom sizes start at 45 or 47mm, which, at minimum, corresponds to the mean erect circumference minus 2 standard deviations (94.99mm).
From the above definition, more than 95% of the penises can be considered normal. And 2/3 of the penises are average (+ or - one standard deviation).
Please find below the corresponding charts to the erect penis girth (circumference) and length:
Graphically, this translates as follows:
| Very small | Small | Average | Big | Very big |
| 108mm X 95mm | 128mm X 108mm | 148mm X 122mm | 167mm X 135mm | 187mm X 148mm |

Almost all penises are normal, and the great majority is average!
There is no excuse anymore to be worried! There are also different shaped condoms out there to suit those who want more "head room", a tighter grip on the shaft, or a flared shape, for example. Check out this Condom Size Calculator for help.
Now, instead of focusing so much on size, depending on the type of penis you have, you may feel the need to adapt your behaviour and strategy (provided that love, care, attention to your partner should already be what really matters).
For a bit of fun, I invite you to go to this page which happens to have a fairly good estimate of the averages:
