Greek men have been left crying "foul play" after worlddata.info - a scientific online publication that focuses on large global problems such as poverty, disease, hunger, climate change, war, existential risks and (especially applicable in this case) inequality - have released their annual global survey results ranking countries of the world by average penis size.
“No other topic on this website has been asked for more often than the average size of male genitalia. This international comparison now gives some basic data about the mean sizes per country,” says worddata.info.
Across all countries, the average size of a penis is about 13.58 cm. The longest one is 17.61 cm long and carried by men in Ecuador.
Scrolling all the way down from position number one on this tell-all (some may say bogus - depending of their nation of origin) list that ranks penis size by nation, Greece can be found, in the unfortunate spot of 64 at a length of 13.30 cm.
At the very bottom of the list lies Cambodia where, according to this survey, the average penis length is only 10.04 cm, which is about 6.1 percent of the nation's average male body height.
The belief that penis size can be determined by factors such as shoe size or the length of the index finger is often mentioned, but the survey debunks that myth, revealing that no clear connections have been established between these variables. Some studies indicate a minimal correlation between index finger length and penis size, while others found no evidence of any dependence. Interestingly, however, one study from Korea curiously found an inverse dependence to the length of the middle and ring finger.
Alongside the data on penis size, worlddata.info also now provides information on average breast sizes by country of origin. For those wondering, the largest breasts can be found in Norway, Iceland, the United Kingdom and the USA, the smallest in Central Africa and Southeast Asia. There are also striking similarities with the BMI in terms of size distribution.
Globally, a natural female breast has an average size somewhere between a large "A" and a smaller "B" in the US size system. According to European or Australian classifications, this would be a "B".
Interestingly, Greek women rank 24th in terms of breast size, placing them 42 positions ahead of their male counterparts’ penis size ranking, who are listed as 64th in the survey of world origin by penis size.
Men in Australia sit 21 places above the Greeks, holding position 43 on the ranking with an average length of 14.46 cm with some (Greek) males speculating that the high population of Greeks in Australia and outside of their native homeland is responsible for boosting the nation’s ranking on the survey.
