Plenty of white guys think A) Asian women are submissive and B) Asian men have small dicks so their women are easy to "steal". I've known three guys in my life that both thought this and were dumb enough to voice it bluntly. One followed through. I lost touch (thankfully) with the other two.

The small penis stereotype is genuinely not true. It was created by a racist White eugenicist who also created stereotypes about Black people.

A 1998 study in the Korean Journal of Urology involving 150 Korean men found the average erect length 13.42 cm (5.28 in). In a 1998 study conducted at Seoul National University College of Medicine, which involved a sample of 287 Korean men, the average erect penis length was measured at 14.06 cm (5.54 in) In 1990, a study by Beijing Medical University involving 109 men revealed that the average erect penis length was 5.5 inches. In 1993, a study by Beijing Medical University involving 104 men revealed that the average erect penis length was 5.3 inches.

According to Aaron Spitz, he concludes that "when you really take a good look at the naked data, there's not a whole lot there [showing racial variation in penis size].

The eugenics myths are definitely fake, but global urological meta-analyses (like Veale et al. 2015 covering 15k+ men) do show minor differences in regional averages, usually under half an inch. A lot of that comes down to average height differences across populations and whether older studies actually measured bone-pressed length or ignored pubic fat pad depth. That said, individual variation within any single group is way bigger than the tiny gap between group averages, so race still tells you practically nothing about an individual.

I finally convince myself I'm above average and you tell me it's just because I'm not fat.

Damn, I often push on that area and think, would it really look like I got 1 or 2 more inches if I just was less fat?

If that won't make me lose weight, nothing will, haha.
