Nose length is an indicator of the size of a man's penis, science says

The researchers then compared the SPL of each corpse to its other body measurements such as height, weight, and size of different body parts (including limbs and nose). The results of this bizarre experiment were shocking.

The strange connection between nasal size and penile length

The minimum SPL among men having large nasal sizes was 5.3 inches (13.4 cm). On the other side, researchers found out that among corpses with small noses, the least stretched penile length was only 4.1 inches (10.4 cm).

“The most highly correlated factor with SPL was the flaccid penile length. The next highest correlation was nose size,” the researchers note in their paper.

The researchers believe that in the future, their study could play a crucial role in explaining the growth pattern of male genitals, their relation with facial features, and evaluating male sex hormone levels in babies before birth. The results of the study are quite fascinating; however, they are in contrast to what some previous studies have highlighted about penile length.

For instance, a study published in the journal PNAS in 2013 suggests that penis size, height, and body shape are related to each other and they collectively play an important role in deciding the overall sexual appeal of human males. Another 2011 research from the Asian Journal of Andrology reveals that the ratio of the sizes of the index finger and ring finger in humans shares an inverse relationship with penis length.

No such patterns were observed by the Japanese researchers when they compared SPL against limb size, height, and weight of the dead subjects. However, in one of their previous studies, the researchers conclude that penile length is associated with aging. “We found that penile length almost stopped increasing during adolescence, remained unchanged in middle age, and decreased slightly in older males,” said the authors of the study.

The latest SPL analysis of the cadavers suggests that apart from age, nasal size is the only factor linked to penis size. However, since the researchers studied only dead Japanese men, further research is required to collect more evidence related to their findings.

The study is published in the journal Basic and Clinical Andrology.

Abstract:

In a previous report, we investigated whether the size of male genitalia similarly exposed to serum testosterone during aging could change with age and found that penile length almost stopped increasing during adolescence and decreased in older males. In this report, to determine what factors other than age are related to penile length, we performed a multivariate analysis of the relationships between stretched penile length (SPL) and other measurements of genital organs, nose size, height and body weight in 126 adults in their 30s–50s.
