<em>LA Times</em> Delves Into the Muddy Waters of Penis Length

How in the crap did we miss this!!!? On the Fourth of July, the LA Times ran perhaps the most RIDICULOUS story we have ever seen. Seriously, if the byline was Trey Parker from South Park we wouldn't have been surprised. The er...nut of the story...is that neither big hands nor big feet are indicators of a large penis, "the ratio of the length of his index finger to that of his ring finger," is the telltale sign. Dr. Tae Beom Kim, a urologist at Gachon University in Incheon, Korea, and his colleagues studied 144 men over the age of 20 who were undergoing urological surgery for conditions that do not affect the length of the penis. One member of the team carefully measured the lengths of the index and ring fingers on the subject's right hand before surgery -- left hands are thought to be more variable. A second team member then measured penis length immediately after the subject had been anesthetized. The length was measured both when the penis was flaccid and when it had been stretched as much as possible. Stretched length is thought to correlate to erect length, the team wrote. The team found that, in general, the lower the ratio of the lengths of the two fingers, the longer the stretched length of the penis. Hey, Korean researchers, there's an absolutely 100% reliable method of judging a man's penis size. It's called a fucking ruler. Seriously. How ridiculous is this study? A bunch of Korean researchers standing around with tape measures, stretching out the penises of men undergoing surgery. And then to pick up this story and run in the paper! On a day other than April 1st! Did the Times recently hire Randy Marsh to edit its science pieces?
