@ChrisWillx - "The Ideal Size, According to Women"

Link: https://youtu.be/oD-R2VGVOSQ

Short Summary​

A study using 3D models reveals women's ideal penis size preferences are generally larger than the average male penis and often exceed their past experiences, with preferred lengths around 6.3-6.4 inches and circumferences of 4.8-5 inches. Although most women do not see size as a dealbreaker, roughly 27% have ended relationships partly due to a partner's size, predominantly if it was perceived as too small. The discussion also notes potential practical limits on the "big" side due to discomfort.
