The world is always eager for new information about how male penis size varies from country to country. In the past, studies have shown that average sizes can vary considerably, although genetics rather than geography play a key role. However, does country really affect size? So to put it another way - how big are the men down there, relative to the country!
How big are the men down there?! Research has shown that proper nutrition in youth and adolescence plays a key role in the development of masculinity. The myth of the correlation between shoe size and penis size has long been disproved, and there is also no reliable connection between height and penis size.
World average for the length of the erect penis is 13.58 cm, with Ecuador (17.61 cm) and Cambodia (10.01 cm) standing out at opposite ends of the spectrum. But what do the latest data say? How big are the men down there?
Latest data – how big the men are down there and where are the Slovenians?
In 2023, it was revealed that the average length of the penis in the world is 13.8 cm, and Slovenians are slightly above the average at 14 cm. Compared to neighboring countries, we are in good company, as only Italy lags behind us with 12.5 cm, while Austria exceeds the average with 14 cm.

Europe and the world: The diversity of sizes
It's in Europe Netherlands with 15.87 cm in the very top, which means that Europe is not lagging behind global trends. However, the survey does not include the Balkan nations, leaving room for conjecture about averages in these regions.
Do men's penises get smaller over time?
Interestingly, the human penis has evolved through evolution to become the largest among primates, both in length and girth when compared to body size. This suggests that size has not decreased throughout evolution, although environmental factors may influence development.
So – how big are the men down there in 2024?!

Despite the conversation and scientific tone, we must not forget the old wisdom: "It's not the size of the ship that matters, but the power of the ocean." But sometimes it can be the other way around, right? Everything is relative, even in science!
