=15 things you didn't know about your penis=
1. Smoking can shorten your penis by as much as a centimetre. Erections are all about good bloodflow and lighting up calcifies blood vessels, stifling erectile circulation. So even if you don't care all that much about your lungs or dying young, spare the lil'l guy.
2. Doctors can now grow skin for burn victims using the foreskins of circumcised infants. One foreskin can produce 23000 square metres, which would be enough to cover every Major League infield with human flesh.
3. An enlarged prostate gland can cause both erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. If you have an unexplained case of either, your doctor's looking forward to check your prostate. Even if you are not.
4. The average male orgasm lasts 6 seconds. Women get 23 seconds. Which means if women are really interested in equality, they would make sure we have four orgasms for each of theirs.
5. The oldest known species with a penis is a hard-shelled sea creature called Colymbosathon ecplecticos. That's greek for "amazing swimmer with a large penis".
6. Circumcised foreskin can be reconstructed . Movable skin on the shaft of the penis is pulled toward the tip and set in place with tape. Later, doctors apple plastic rings, caps and weights. Years can pass until complete coverage is attained... Okay, I'll shut up now.
7. Only one man in 400 is flexible enough to give himself oral pleasure. It is estimated, however, that all 400 have given it their best shot at some point.
8. There are two types of penises. One kind expands and lengthens when becoming erect (a grower). The other appears big most of the time, but doesn't get much bigger after achieving erection (a shower).
9. An international men's health survey reports that 79% of mean have growers while 21% have showers.
10. German researchers say that the average intercourse lasts 2 minutes and 50 seconds yet women perceive it as lasting 5 minutes and 30 seconds. Are we that good or that bad?
11. Turns out size does matter: the longer your penis, the better "semen displacement" you will achieve when having sex with a woman flush with competing sperm. That's according to researchers at the State University of New York, who used artificial phalluses (ahem) to test the "scooping" mechanism of the penis's coronal ridge. Next up, curing cancer.
12. The penis that has been enjoyed most by women could be that of King Fatefehi of Tonga who supposedly deflowered 37800 women between 1770 and 1784 - that's about 7 ladies a day. Go ahead, say it: It's good to be King.
13. Better looking men may have stronger sperm. Spanish researchers showed women photos of guys who had good, average and lousy sperm and told them to pick the handsomest men. The women chose the best sperm producers often.
14. No brain is necessary for ejaculation. That order comes from the spinal cord. Finding a living vessel for the said ejaculation, however, takes hours of careful thought and, often, considerable amounts of alcohol.
15. The most common cause of penile rupture: vigorous masturbation. Some risks are just worth taking.
