No section is more devastating to the male psyche than the brutal facts about male genitals. Below are ten examples of facts McNeal has uncovered that will cause the manliest part of your anatomy to shrink back into your body like a turtle ducking into its shell.

Fact 895: Smoking can shrink a man's penis by up to a centimeter.

Fact 898: Congenital hypoplasia occurs when the penile glands are stuck directly to the pubic bone, resulting in a very small penis.

Fact 899: Despite what men might claim, only 15 percent have a penis longer than seven inches. Only 3 percent have a penis more than eight inches long.

Fact 901: Handyman Charles Lennon has suffered through a perpetual erection since being fitted with a steel penis implant in 1996.

Fact 907: The most common cause of penile rupture is vigorous masturbation.

Fact 915: One method of surgical penis enlargement is to cut the suspensory ligament that holds the root of the penis up inside the pelvis. This can only add an inch or so to your penis length, and carries the risk of impotence.

Fact 929: The nerves in testicles are connected to the abdomen, another reason why force to the area causes so much pain, and why that pain is felt in the stomach.

Fact 934: Testicular cancer is most common in men between the ages of twenty and thirty-nine.

Fact 940: Hitler and Napoleon each had only one testicle.

Fact 943: During mating with the queen bee, the male drone's genitals explode and snap off inside the queen.
