A surgeon has suggested that men have one body part that gives away how big their penis is - and it's not what you’re thinking.
If you’re off on a first date soon and want to scope out what's going on down there, this bit of info might just come in good use.
There's lots of things you can take from a first impression of someone, perhaps how kind their smile looks, or if they have gorgeous eyes.
But another thing might be on your list after this...

The age-old classic is that big feet and big hands are a good indicator of the kind of package a man has going on.
And whilst there probably is a correlation somewhere, there's another body part, according to experts, that can be a tell-tale sign your next potential partner has larger than life private parts.
Dr. Rena Malik, a guest on the Diary of a CEO podcast, revealed there has been research into a more reliable body part to indicate how big a man's penis is.
And you're not going to have to look very hard to find it - a first glance will do.
She said: "There’s one study - it’s a Japanese study where they looked at only Japanese men so there are some limitations - but they measured all these body parts and penile length and they found was that nose length was correlated with penile length, not hand length or foot."
The study found that men with bigger noses tend to have the same luck in the lower region.
It found that men with a nose 4.5cm (1.7 inches) long had an average non-erect penis size of 10cm (4 inches).
Those with a nose longer than 5.5cm (2.1 inches) had an average penis size of 13.4cm (over five inches).
However, the expert didn’t go into whether she had seen other studies linking nose and penis size.
Researcher Dr Sungwoo Hong said: “Nose size is an important indicator of penile size.
“And penile circumference increased with foot size. Several studies have suggested hormone exposure in the prenatal period affects the growth of reproductive organs.”
So where do British men rank in that department compared to the rest of the world?
Ecuador has the biggest average penis size, measuring at 6.93 inches. But it turns out that the UK ranks 68th, with an average of 5.2 inches.
