Here’s How Much Men Actually Lie About Their Penis Size, According To Science

by Sean Abrams

If you're a dude, I will bet a large amount of money you've measured your penis before.

A wooden ruler you'd typically find in a classroom in one hand, your schlong in your other hand, and your natural curiosity has you seeing just where you stack up in the dick department.

There's nothing wrong with it, as long as you stick to the "hard" facts.

Dating website Saucy Dates aimed to make honest men out of those who fib a little when it comes to their true penis length, so they surveyed 953 guys and 726 girls across six different nations about guys' penis sizes.

The website asked the guys what they believe the size of their erect penis is, and they asked the girls what the size of the penis of the last man they slept with was.

Using the average of both men's answers and women's answers, Saucy Dates found out which country's men were honest, modest or just downright liars.

According to the results, United States gentlemen believe they have real-life eggplant emoji penises, reporting an average erect penis size of 7.24 inches.

Too bad the ladies don't exactly agree. United States women contradicted that number, stating they typically see 6.64-inch penises (an 8.3 percent discrepancy).

On the other hand, men from Canada and India tended to underestimate themselves.

Canadian men listed an average of 6.84 inches, and Indian men said they stacked up around 6.07 inches. But Canadian and Indian women reported 6.96 inches and 6.30 inches, respectively.

Out of all the locations polled, Australian men were the most dishonest, with their exaggeration percentage at a whopping 17.5 percent. (Men reported an average of 7.24 inches, but women answered with only 5.58 inches.)

Sorry, Aussies. I guess there's much less to work with down under than you're leading us to believe... unless you're Liam Hemsworth. That beautiful angel could spew lies straight to my face, and I'd still end up riding him like a sailor on shore leave.

United States gentlemen believe they have real-life eggplant emoji penises, reporting an average erect penis size of 7.24 inches.

But clearly, if you're in the pursuit of a perfect penis dangling from an honest man, make your way to good, ol' Canada.

Sounds like those guys have the perfect "package" to me, eh?

Overestimations won't get you very far, gentlemen. If anything, it'll just lead to disappointment.
