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.
