“In both surveys, male participants rated rivals with a larger penis as more sexually competitive and physically threatening,” the study’s authors explained.
“To our knowledge, this is the first experimental evidence that males assess rivals’ fighting ability and attractiveness to females based partly on a rival’s penis size.
“Our findings suggest that female choice and male-male competition have jointly favoured larger penis size, greater height, and more V-shaped bodies in men.”
As well as women finding men with bigger penises more attractive, experts also discovered they also like blokes who aren’t the shortest and offer a greater shoulder-to-hip ratio.
And with the ‘fighting ability’, well, women think men with larger manhoods have a better of grasp of such too.
Dr Aich said: “Men rated rivals with larger penises as more physically threatening and sexually competitive.”
