Hey, guys! Do you judge or make assumptions about men’s personality traits and behaviors based on their dick pics?

If your answer is yes, you’re not alone in that regard. Apparently these days, people’s personalities, specifically that of the male sex variety, are being gauged through… their penises? Or, you know, a snapshot of it.

This is, at least, according to a study published in the journal Sexuality & Culture way back in August. And I know, going by the comments on our article posted earlier this month, that some of you like receiving or sending dick pics (although some are apathetic towards it), which is why we’re featuring this today.   

The study, which was conducted by scientists and researchers from New Mexico Highlands University, has gone viral on social media thanks to this gal who dubbed herself “Dr. M the Science Femme.” She collaborated with PsyPost to interpret the results of the study. She said, “This study tested what first impression you’re giving about your personality judging by your dick pic alone.”

Dr. M the Science Femme, who has a Ph.D. in Neuroscience, explained the study in detail:

Apparently, skinny penises are giving neuroticism, and girthy penises are giving more extraverted, open to new experiences, more sexually active, better in bed, and more of a pleaser as opposed to being a ‘pillow princess.’ Long penises gave off the same impressions. Medium-length penises didn’t signal any strong personality traits at all. Congratulations, you’re a blank canvas. Maybe now partners can get to know you as a *person.*

Now, for something we can all control: Having untrimmed pubic hair apparently gives off strong signals that you’re an introverted, disagreeable, careless, virgin.

Further, she commented that the paper was shockingly woke and self-aware. She added, “I was impressed by how they acknowledge that penis-sized based perceptions of masculinity are related to greater sexism and greater sexual narcissism. Add a new red flag to the list, yall. Points revoked for specifically including LGBQ+ participants with a conspicuous absence of a T in that acronym.”

You can watch Dr. M the Science Femme’s talk through the clip shown below:

The study was reportedly conducted to find out “what information is inferred from a picture of a penis at zero-acquaintance.” A total of 106 people, 80% of whom were women, were shown pictures of 24 penises that varied in girth, length, and the amount of pubic hair. The respondents were also asked several questions including:

  • This person is sympathetic, warm.
  • Would this person be an active member of sex (pleaser) or a passive member in sex (pillow princess)?
  • How many sexual partners do you think this person has had?
