A study suggests that men have one body part that gives away how big their penis is - and it might not be what you’re thinking.
If you’re off on a first date soon and want to scope out your potential next lover, this bit of info might just come in good use.
As it turns out, big feet might not be the only tell-tale sign of a man with a package on the bigger side.

Scientists have said that the size of the penis and this body part is because it has been exposed to higher levels of testosterone in the womb.
And the hormone is known to play a key role in the formation of both.
And you’ll be glad to know that you don’t have to look hard to find it.

The research, by a team at Ulsan University Hospital in South Korea, backs up a 2021 Japanese study which found a correlation between the same body parts.
It turns out the bigger your hooter, the bigger your penis.
The study found that men with bigger noses tend to have the same luck in the lower region.
It found that men with a nose 4.5cm (1.7 inches) long had an average non-erect penis size of 10cm (4 inches).

Those with a nose longer than 5.5cm (2.1 inches) had an average penis size of 13.4cm (over five inches).
During the study, nose size was determined by the length from the corner of the eye to the bottom of each nostril.
Experts recruited 1,160 men in their thirties, and measured their nose size compared to their non-erect penis size.
Researcher Dr Sungwoo Hong said: “Nose size is an important indicator of penile size.

“And penile circumference increased with foot size.
“Several studies have suggested hormone exposure in the prenatal period affects the growth of reproductive organs.”
For years, anecdotal evidence has suggested that men with big hands, feet or noses were blessed in the trouser department.

But some studies have come up with another hint, adding that having a long ring finger also points to a bigger package.
So where do British men rank in that department compared to the rest of the world?
Ecuador has the biggest average penis size, measuring at 6.93 inches.
*Cue an increased demand for flights to Ecuador*
But it turns out that the UK ranks 68th, with an average of 5.2 inches.
