Fact check: What is the range of penis length in Texas

Checked on August 31, 2025

1. Summary of the results

The analyses reveal that no specific data exists for penis length ranges in Texas. However, several relevant findings provide broader context:

  • The national average for erect penis length in the US is 6.41 inches according to self-reported survey data [1]
  • Americans have the largest average penis measurements globally, with stretched penile length averaging 14.47 cm (approximately 5.7 inches) and flaccid length averaging 9.86-10.98 cm [2]
  • Global erect penis length averages 13.93 cm (5.48 inches) based on pooled data from multiple studies [3]
  • Penis length has increased over time, with a 24% increase documented between 1992 and 2021 [3]
  • One study found the combined mean for erect penis length to be 5.36 inches (13.61 cm) across 10 studies [4]

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original question assumes that state-specific penis length data exists for Texas, but the analyses demonstrate this information is not available. Key missing context includes:

  • Geographic variations within the US are not well-documented - while one source mentions "significant variations by state" [1], Texas-specific data was not provided
  • Measurement methodology differences create varying results - studies use different approaches including stretched flaccid length, erect length, and self-reported measurements
  • Regional differences exist globally - Western Pacific Asian men have the smallest average measurements while Americans have the largest [2]
  • Temporal trends show increasing lengths - any historical Texas data would need to account for the documented 24% increase over nearly three decades [3]

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question contains an implicit assumption that state-specific penis length data exists for Texas, which the analyses show is unfounded. Additional bias concerns include:

  • Self-reported data introduces significant bias - the survey providing the 6.41-inch national average relies on self-reporting, which typically inflates measurements [1]
  • Sample selection bias may affect regional studies, as participants willing to report penis measurements may not represent the general population
  • Medical vs. survey data discrepancies are evident - medical studies show lower averages (5.36-5.48 inches) compared to self-reported surveys (6.41 inches) [4] [3] [1]
  • The question may perpetuate regional stereotyping by seeking Texas-specific data without scientific justification for expecting meaningful state-level variations
