Is 5.5 inches really average? Or it’s just a massive disinformation?

Who, and HOW measured worldwide average? Like how is that even possible? I’m sure they didn’t even measured 0.1% of male population.
And women who had more than one partner meet someone who’s above average too much. So maybe it’s not actually average?

    its statistics. you try to get a representative subgroup of any size (not too small) and then extrapolate.

    a lot of these statistics are done with just 1000 people or even less.

    A serious study begins with a chapter about the methods used. Typical measurements are taken by medical personnel or through self-reporting. M

    And yes, you are right that they do not even measure 0.1% of the male population. However, this is not necessary to obtain a statistically relevant statement.

    Bro, calm down. It’s not a government conspiracy against your groin. The scientists weren’t out there measuring dicks like election polls. It’s called statistical sampling, not the Global Penis Olympics 2025. And if every woman you know is ‘meeting above average,’ maybe the real issue isn’t the data it’s you being below emotional average with a ruler complex.
