Is 14 cm small, average, or big?

14 cm (5.5 in) is inside the normal band where roughly two thirds of men fall: it measures more than 70% of men in the 2015 Veale et al. review of 15,521 men (global erect length mean 13.1 cm, SD 1.7 cm).

What percentile is 14 cm?

14 cm (5.5 in) lands at about the 70% percentile — top 30%, meaning roughly 30% of men measure more.

Is 14 cm enough for a partner?

Partner-preference studies (e.g. Lever 2006, Prause 2015) consistently rank size far below what men assume — most partners place it well behind factors like attentiveness and confidence. At 14 cm (5.5 in) you are inside the normal band where roughly two thirds of men fall, which the data shows is firmly within the range partners consider normal.

The Data Answer

Is 14 cm enough?

14 cm (5.5 in), measured against the global distribution from the largest review to date (Veale et al. 2015, n = 15,521).

Longer than 70% of men

Average

That puts 14 cm (5.5 in) in the top 30% — 30% of men measure more.

Above the midpoint

This clears the global median — more men measure less than this than more. It sits inside the normal band (±1 SD), where most of the population lives.

The number in perspective

Above the compiled national average in 56 of 134 countries we track.
In a room of 1,000 men, about 298 measure more.
Only 68.27% of men fall inside the Average band (−1 to +1 SD of the mean).

Context

The global erect length mean is 13.1 cm (5.2 in) with SD 1.7 cm — two thirds of all men fall between roughly 11.5 and 14.8 cm (4.5–5.8 in).
Percentiles assume a correct measurement: bone-pressed, fully erect, top side. Technique changes the number by up to 2 cm — see how to measure.
What partners actually care about is a different (and much-cited) dataset — does size matter to partners?
