How true is the following statement: "Dick size has literally evolved to be comparatively huge to other primates because women love huge dicks"

=== Assistant: Short answer: The statement is exaggerated and not accurate as written. ===
Short answer: The statement is exaggerated and not accurate as written.
Long answer below.

==== ✅ What is true? ====

Humans do have:
* Longer penises (when erect) compared to most primates
* Thicker girth
* A uniquely shaped glans (head)
* Relatively high testicle size compared to body weight

So yes, human genital anatomy is distinctive.

And sexual selection did play a role in human evolution. Sexual selection means traits that improve mating success—physical or behavioral—get passed on more.

==== ❌ What is not true? ====

The idea that “women love huge dicks, therefore humans evolved huge dicks” is way too simplistic and not supported by evolutionary biology.

Here’s why:

===== 1. No evidence that prehistoric women had a universal preference for very large penises =====
* Preferences vary wildly across cultures even today.
* Large size is not universally preferred—comfort and safety matter too.
* Prehistoric women chose mates based on many things: resources, protection, cooperation, group status, health, etc.

===== 2. Human penis size is greatly influenced by male–male competition =====

In many primates, penis size correlates with sperm competition, not female visual preference.
Humans historically experienced moderate sperm competition compared to chimpanzees or bonobos.

Penis size may have evolved for:
* Better sperm delivery
* Displacing rival sperm (glans shape theory)
* Visible arousal signal
* Female internal stimulation to encourage fertilization, not pleasure alone

===== 3. Most primates do not rely on the penis for mate attraction =====

Humans are unusual because:
* We’re bipedal → the genital region becomes visually noticeable.
* There are no big external swelling signs like in chimps or baboons.

So visibility might have made penis size a social and sexual cue… but not solely because women prefer “huge.”

==== ✔️ More accurate version of the theory ====

Human penis evolution is likely due to a mix of factors:

===== (1) Moderate sperm competition =====

Not as extreme as chimpanzees, not as low as gorillas.

===== (2) Social signaling =====

Standing upright makes genital size visually noticeable. A larger penis can signal:
* health
* development
* maturity
* genetic fitness

===== (3) Some female mate choice =====

Women may have preferred:
* symmetry
* function
* moderate size Not “the biggest possible.”

===== (4) Penile morphology for reproductive efficiency =====

The glans shape may help:
* create suction to remove rival sperm
* deepen penetration for depositing sperm past the vaginal entrance

This has nothing to do with pleasure alone.

==== 📌 So how true is the original statement? ====

On a scale from 0% (false) to 100% (true), it's around 20% true.

There was some female preference involved, but not:
* universally
* strongly
* primarily for “huge” size

The evolution of human penile traits is complex, multi-factorial, and not driven by a simple “women prefer huge” dynamic.

If you want, I can also break down:
* How ancient Greeks viewed penis size
* Why large penises were not ideal in classical art
* How penis size compares across primates
* Modern cross-cultural preference data
