Doctor shares surprising answer about what the average penis size is

Listen, we know, we know... size isn’t anything. But, let’s face it, there’s somethings that people just fixate on how big or small they are.

Like penises. Obviously. And while you might be smugly walking about thinking you’ve got the best package in your pants, it might just be that you’re the same as everyone else.

Dr Jen Caudle has shared the surprising answer about what the average d**k size is.

The US-based doc often shares her knowledge and helpful tips on TikTok, with one particularly popular video answering a common question from her followers.

That was, of course: “What is the average length of a penis?”

Racking up over a million views, viewers were left shocked by her answer.

In the clip, her aim was to talk down the expectations and pressures that men may feel when it comes to their size, as she claims the average penis length is actually a lot different to what many might expect.

Dr Caudle highlighted the importance of talking about the subject, which can make people feel uneasy or sometimes, uncomfortable.

She also wanted to get rid of any 'societal pressure' that may be felt by people who think that they have to be or look 'a certain way'.

The doc explained why she was posting the video, saying: "One reason is, I think most people think the average penis size is a lot longer and larger than it actually is.

"Number two, there's a lot of societal pressure to be a certain way, this goes for both men and women, and I'm not a fan of it.

"The bigger message here is to know that you're fine just the way you are, that's the most important message that I'm trying to give with this video."

She also added that the average length of a penis was 'actually shorter than a lot of people would imagine'.

Dr Caudle followed this up by saying that size doesn't necessarily correlate with pleasure, for those who might be worried they might not be able to perform in the bedroom due to their size.

According to the medical expert, who boasts a TikTok following of over 190k, the 'average size of a flaccid penis is 3.61 inches'.

She also claimed: "The average size of an erect penis is 5.17 inches."

Many viewers found this information to be a positive, with several jokes in the comments section.

One quipped: "Oooooooooooooooooohhh were half way there."

As another said: "Finally I’m above average on something."

And a different user echoed the doctor's words, commenting: "A bit like money, what matters is what you do with it!! lol."

Whether or not the figures are good news, the overall message behind the video should be taken onboard by viewers as a huge step in the direction of body positivity.
