较大的阴茎尺寸被视为权力、耐力、男性气质和社会地位的象征。然而,在男男性行为者中,很少有研究评估阴茎尺寸与社会性健康之间的关系。来自 1,065 名男男性行为者的不同样本的调查数据被用来探索感知的阴茎尺寸与各种心理社会结果之间的关联。 7% 的男性认为自己的阴茎“低于平均水平”,53.9% 的男性认为“平均水平”,35.5% 的男性认为“高于平均水平”。阴茎尺寸与尺寸满意度呈正相关,与关于阴茎尺寸的谎言呈负相关(所有 p < .01)。大小与安全套的使用、性伴侣的频率、艾滋病毒状况或最近诊断出的乙型肝炎病毒、丙型肝炎病毒、淋病/衣原体/尿路感染和梅毒无关。阴茎高于平均水平的男性更有可能报告 HPV 和 HSV-2(Fisher 精确 p ≤ .05)。阴茎低于平均水平的男性更有可能被认为是“下位”(肛门接受型),而阴茎高于平均水平的男性则更有可能被认为是“上位”(肛门插入型)。最后,阴茎低于平均水平的男性在心理社会调整的三项指标上表现明显差于其他男性。尽管大多数男性认为自己的阴茎尺寸处于平均水平,但许多男性都超出了这个“标准”。病毒性皮肤接触性传播感染(HSV-2 和 HPV)数量过多,表明尺寸可能是避孕套滑落/破损的原因之一。此外,体型在性定位和心理社会调整中发挥着重要作用。这些数据强调需要更好地了解生活在以阴茎为中心的社会中对个人层面的真正后果。
Larger penis size has been equated with a symbol of power, stamina, masculinity, and social status. Yet, there has been little research among men who have sex with men assessing the association between penis size and social-sexual health. Survey data from a diverse sample of 1,065 men who have sex with men were used to explore the association between perceived penis size and a variety of psychosocial outcomes. Seven percent of men felt their penis was “below average,” 53.9% “average,” and 35.5% “above average.” Penis size was positively related to satisfaction with size and inversely related to lying about penis size (all p < .01). Size was unrelated to condom use, frequency of sex partners, HIV status, or recent diagnoses of HBV, HCV, gonorrhea/Chlamydia/urinary tract infections, and syphilis. Men with above average penises were more likely to report HPV and HSV-2 (Fisher’s exact p ≤ .05). Men with below average penises were significantly more likely to identify as “bottoms” (anal receptive) and men with above average penises were significantly more likely to identify as tops (anal insertive). Finally, men with below average penises fared significantly worse than other men on three measures of psychosocial adjustment. Though most men felt their penis size was average, many fell outside this “norm.” The disproportionate number of viral skin-to-skin STIs (HSV-2 and HPV) suggest size may play a role in condom slippage/breakage. Further, size played a significant role in sexual positioning and psychosocial adjustment. These data highlight the need to better understand the real individual-level consequences of living in a penis-centered society.
