There’s some thought that this is also the reason for the shape of the human penis

Which really makes you think, shouldn’t longer-penised individuals have an reproductive advantage over short-penised people? Longer penises can scoop deeper in the couchhole to get out other people’s jizz. Why hasn’t the human race evolved such that every male had 20 cm (7.8 in) penises?

We kind of have. Human penises are waaaay bigger than those of other primate species, and many other mammals (relative to overall body size).

Poor, poor gorillas, they never stood a chance.

Gorillas consider large penises a sign of barbarism. When’s the last time you heard of a gorilla killing someone?
A human?
Think about it. /s… Unless?

The longer the penis, the larger the fraction of women who will find sex with that person painful, and at some point the reproductive advantage of scooping out others’ semen will be nullified due to the fact that no woman wants to sleep with you. I think I read that four inches is the length that most women find comfortable, but I don’t remember where I read it.

I’m pretty sure I read 8 as the average preferred length, but I’m sure we’re both biased in what we read so I have no idea really. All I have is personal experience that tell me it’s well above 4, but also everyone I’ve slept with has been generally aware of my size beforehand, so it’s got a large self-selection bias.

Iirc humans already have way bigger penises than other apes

I learned about this from a book I really enjoyed called Nature’s Nether Regions. The part about spiders was pretty weird as well.
