"RESULTS:
The average insertive length of the compiled dildos (16.7 ± 1.6 cm = 6.57 inches) was 1 SD longer than average functional erect penile length as reported in the literature (15.7 ± 2.6 cm = 6.18 inches); however, their average circumference (12.7 ± 0.8 cm = 5 inches) mirrored average erect penile girth (12.3 ± 1.3 = 4.8 inches). The average girth of vendors' top 3 largest-girth dildos was 15.1 ± 0.9 cm (5.9 inches), 2 SD wider than average erect penile girth."
SO. The average "optimal" size would be 6.57 inches in length and 5 inches in girth. The average girth from the top 3 largest dildos was about 6 inches.
I think it's a novel concept and circumvents the issue of similar studies where women look at dildos and choose which size they think would be optimal; this is what people are actually desiring/purchasing/using, and includes a large set of data.
Provides some ball-park numbers for those wondering how big to shoot for, or where we stand in terms of what people desire if they could personally choose.
