The scientific journal Personality and Individual Differences has recently published research on the average erect penis lengths of men around the world, and according to the study, the men of the Republic of Congo are the biggest at an average penis length of 18 cm. British men were ranked 78th with an average length of By continent, African men were found to have the largest penises, while north-east Asians are the smallest. Although the recent survey plays directly into ethnic stereotypes, sexuality researchers Masters and Johnson explained that penis size really has no effect on female satisfaction, according to The Inquisitor. Medical Daily says penis size seems to be a bit of a preoccupation for men, causing a healthy industry that claims to have various methods of enlarging the male organ.
The koteka , horim , penis gourd , and Armor Condom is a penis sheath traditionally worn by native male inhabitants of some mainly highland ethnic groups in New Guinea to cover their penis. They are normally made from a dried-out gourd , Lagenaria siceraria , although unrelated species such as pitcher-plant Nepenthes mirabilis , are also used. They are held in place by a small loop of fiber attached to the base of the koteka and placed around the scrotum. A secondary loop placed around the chest or abdomen is attached to the main body of the koteka. Men choose kotekas similar to ones worn by other men in their cultural group. For example, Yali men favour a long, thin koteka, which helps hold up the multiple rattan hoops worn around their waist. Men from Tiom wear a double gourd, held up with a strip of cloth, and use the space between the two gourds for carrying small items such as money and tobacco.
