Should the Definition of Micropenis Vary According to Ethnicity?
Objective: We determined whether the existing reference values for the diagnosis of micropenis are appropriate for optimal care of neonates in a multiethnic environment like Vancouver. Methods: The stretched penile length and width were measured in 105 full-term newborn males of Caucasian (n = 40), Chinese (n = 40) and East-Indian origin (n = 25). Results: Mean length -2.5 SD was used for the definition of micropenis and was 2.6, 2.5 and 2.3 cm for Caucasian, East-Indian and Chinese babies, respectively (p < 0.05). This is close to the widely accepted recommendation that a penile length of 2.4- 2.5 cm be considered as the lowest limit for the definition of micropenis. Conclusion: Mean penile length and diameter are slightly but significantly smaller in newborns of Chinese origin compared to newborns of Caucasian and East-Indian origins.
so sorry

how does one research this? canvas the redlight district? poll women who've had multiple ethinic lovers from different cultures? ask men to line up, drop their drawers and say "awww" ..what social significance can this possibly have? (except that there's less employment opportunities for asian porn stars?)
btw "size doesnt matter" was made up by some guy with a micropenis ..or the girlfriend of a guy with a micropenis
