Undressed to impress

After the bust out success of The Big Book of Breasts TASCHEN presents the perfect companion, The Big Penis Book.

When it comes to pleasure, size doesn’t matter; as we all know it’s quality, not quantity, that counts. But let’s admit it: a big penis is undeniably compelling. Big shoulders, big lapels, and big hair may come and go, but the big penis never goes out of fashion. With those possessing more than 8 inches (20 cm) making up less than 2% of the world’s population, this rare accessory will always fascinate.

In The Big Penis Book we explore the centuries-old fascination with the large phallus, a fascination common to men and women alike. This hefty book is profusely illustrated with over 400 historic photos of spectacular male endowments, including rare photos of the legendary John Holmes. The majority of the photographs are from the 1970s, when the sexual revolution first freed photographers to depict the male entirely nude. Photographers include Bob Mizer of Athletic Model Guild, David Hurles of Old Reliable, Colt, Falcon, Sierra Domino, Third World, and Champion Studios, with each of these iconic photographers interviewed or profiled, along with information about each of their models. And if this isn’t enough, the book closes with a special surprise comparable to the Guinness Book of Records’ Norma Stitz featured in The Big Book of Breasts! Can you guess what body part Dian is dissecting next?

I've known about this book for ages, I have it on order from my local book store. It looks like it's going to be good!

I love this book and most every book that comes from the TASCHEN publishing company. Ever since I was in middle school when I discovered coffee table books. (Thanks Tom Bianchi!)

That would be more than 60 million men.

Is that accurate?

Yup. Two percent of just over 3 billion men would be ... 60 million.

Yea. The calculation is accurate of course.

But is the statement correct?
That 60 million or 2% of men have a cock larger than 20 cm (8 inches)?

I think it's bullshit ..

Or is there any "study" that would suggest so?

back in the 70's holmes was all porn had as huge cocks....matt ramsey aka peter north was around also but most sit down movies showed john holmes movies. it was the cumshot,,, that was what people looked for...the money shot....and most movies showed them in slo-mo..... now we see so many big cocks on the net and in the dvd's it seems every guy has one.
the penis book will be like the book back then that every person had...."everything you always want to know about sex....but were afraid to ask"

That's bullshit.

"rare accessory" ?

2%--?
Stating the obvious, I bet it's based on standard deviation shtuff. I think it's bullshit. But what do I know?

ummm, exactly when did they measure EVERY MANS DICK IN THE WORLD?

am i missing something here? was i absent that day in school?

Aren't you forgetting that of the roughly 3 billion males and 2% of that is 60 million, but they are not all full developed men!!! Jeesh...

Is this book available in hardcover?

(Please don't throw rotten produce)

Actually, that's very true. You would have to subtract the number that had not finished adolescence ... and that might be an astonishingly high number, given that many countries in the world have a male median age under 20.

Here's a 2006 list from the CIA World Fact Book:

Astonishing, isn't it?
Notice that Uganda's male median age is not only under 20, but under 15.

You don't really think they would have to measure every man's dick to know the distribution, do you, uncut?

Well, there are studies, and it seems to me that one most often hears that one percent of men have a cock larger than 20 cm.
Are they accurate?
Don't know.

Sorry guys if this percentage and figures makes you feel less exceptionnal :)

I also had 1% in mind, but who really cares ?

Is there nice pics in this book ?

damn, did you see the video on the Taschen website
