A group of Swiss researchers published a paper in The Journal of Sexual Medicine that addresses the question 'What is a good-looking penis?'"

"Here Are Your Penis Beauty Standards."

pubic hair, which ranks No. 2 on the list, is important


Some art begs for a good frame.

Here is an opportunity to tell the old joke about the young man whose roommate had a tattoo on his penis. He started to tell his girlfriend about it and how his roommate had "Eat at Joe's" tattooed on his penis. As he started, she said, isn't it weird that a guy would have "Eat at Josephine's Cafeteria, Chattanooga Tennessee" on his penis ?

Which was prettier ?

Wifey read about this on Facebook a couple days ago. I asked her how the Little Kyzer fared under this scrutiny. She shrugged and said, "I never really thought about it before. Good, I guess." I've spent more time in front of a mirror since then, and am considering buying a trimmer.

"...group of 105 women"

I wonder why they limited the study. Should they have included 105 men. I mean after all, they can get married now. It seems flawed, or limiting to the point of entertainment.

There is no such thing as a good looking penis, merely an acceptable one.

"Welcome to Jamaica, have a nice day"

Coupe, your penis can lick itself? That's quite a talent. You should go on tour.

Michael K., Truman Capote told a story about a drunken man who took offense when his wife went up to Capote in a restaurant and asked for an autograph. According to Capote, the drunk whipped out his penis and said, "You're signing things? Sign this!" Capote replied, "I don't know that I can sign it, but perhaps I can initial it."

I find it difficult to believe any straight man, even a drunken one, would let Truman Capote anywhere near his penis.

I think the scoring would depend on how you framed the question and what the woman wanted to do with said object. e.g. look at it or use it, and how.

I also was surprised at the result and would have ranked hair lower and girth higher, but then, I've never been asked to score dicks...

This was the third study. In the first study they found the trait that made the member the most attractive was the wallet that same with it.

I am Laslo today.

In the second study they had to throw out because some of the participants could identify the subjects in the photos. Apparently subject number six was Jonathan. And subject number nine and a half was Eduardo.

I am Laslo today.

The penumbra is very important. A penis mounted on Summer Redstone's or Hugh Hefner's body becomes almost irresistible to women.

Those guys really know how to trim their pubic hair.

Is a penis that is good-looking handsome or beautiful?

There is a story in RJ Wagner's memoirs about a Hollywood party where an extra, who used to work as a waiter at parties, was persuaded by another actor who was known as a practical joker, to add his huge penis to the hors d'oeuvre plate he was passing. He offered the plate to the wife of a well known businessman as I recall the story, and the lady fainted.

He was, according to Wagner, legendary for its size.

The study did not address the 'grower' versus 'shower' dichotomy.

"The study did not address the 'grower' versus 'shower' dichotomy."

I think that is a 'dickotomy' in this context.

I am Laslo.

So, uh, size (girth) does matter?

I think men spend quite enough time worrying about their equipment without publishing studies like this to start some sort of male Cosmo-like obsession with their tools.

Let the poor men hang out in Home Depot trying to find the right lawn mower.

Unless it's extreme, guys, women are NOT rating you by your dicks. Seriously, we just don't do that. Wipe this from your mind. Your personal equipment is NOT YOUR PROBLEM.

Many other things dominate our decision-making. In no particular order, some examples:
Do you shower?
Work?
Get mean when you're drunk?
Sleep around?
Take out your bad moods on your spouse?
Have a drug or alcohol addiction?
Gamble more than a bit?
Can you manage money?

It's not whether we like your dick - it's whether we like YOU. If we like you, we'll like your dick.

Ann, this was a mean thing to post.

Love that,Maxed out Mama!

As I mentioned in a related post a few months ago, female reaction to an enormously endowed appendage falls into three distinct groups.
One third find it uncomfortable, one third love it, one third are fairly indifferent.

Schlong shaming. Tsk tsk.

Feels best when you can't see it.

Why should an instrument of rape be judged on its aesthetic qualities anyway? Because objectifying men is tit for tat?

P.S. -- Dear feminists, it does look like revenge and if you really are concerned with objectified women, ask why talented designers work on clothes for androgynous figures. The girls that sell men's magazines don't come in size zero.
