LOL! SCIENTISTS DISCOVER GENES RESPONSIBLE FOR SIZE OF THE PENIS

The geneticians, led by Professor Wu Chen Lao, believe their discovery will help to have a better understanding the actual creation process behind male genitalia and could help future generation have larger penises.

The study, published today in Chinese Science Magazine, analysed a population of over 6,000 people with varied ancestry across China to study the differences in penis size and identify the genes which control the shape and size of the organ.

The team collected and analysed DNA samples from 6,630 volunteers, and took measurements of pictures of the volunteers’ penises. They were able to isolate four specific genes, which seem to have a great influence on the size and shape of the organ.

“We have been able to determine that these four genes play a key role in determining the size of the penis,” Professor Wu told Chinese Science Magazine. ” Of course, there are many other factors at play here as well, including hormonal exposure, age and weight. The fatter you are in childhood, the smaller it will be at adulthood, but its final size will be mostly based on your genes.”

Although the discovery has raised many eyebrows in the West, it has attracted a lot of attention across China and Southeast Asia, where the size and vigor of male genitals remain major preoccupations.

Over the centuries, traditional Chinese medicine has produced many strange and exotic remedies for men who want to increase the size of their genitals and improve their sexual performance, like crushed rhinoceros horns, dried tiger penises and bear gall bladders.

Professor Wu and his team hope that their discovery will allow to develop more efficient treatments.
