Question:
greetings. I'm not sure if there is an age limit to whom can submit a question to this site. I'm going to be totally honest, here. I'm 13 years old, and with all the hype and BS in the teen world, and the lack of honest, trustable information about penis size. I have been wondering (and worring) whether I was "average" or below average or (though I always doubted it,) above average. When fully erect, my penis stands about 4 and 15/16 inches tall, and is about 1/4 of an inch wide. Is that average?!? Please don't lay it on thick if it's not; I just want a straight up answer. --Thanks

Thank you for submitting your question. I will be totally honest and will not "lay it on too thick". Obviously every man is different - physically and mentally. However, the average size erect penis is about 5 3/4 inches (give or take). But there are always individuals who are shorter and longer than that. So you would certainly fall into the "average" range. But remember, you are 13, and male bodies develop throughout your teenage years. Even though you may be 4 15/16" now, this may change. Hope this information helps!
