The long-standing assumption linking insecurity over penis size to gun ownership may be inaccurate, a new study says.
Researchers have quashed the theory that men who are unhappy with their penis size are more likely to own guns.A study, carried out by sociologists at the University of Texas at San Antonio, found that men who are satisfied with the size of their genitals are more likely to own firearms, suggesting that the long-standing assumption linking insecurity over penis size to gun ownership may be inaccurate.'Guns are clearly phallic symbols.
The men were also asked if they owned any guns or military-style rifles, and if so, the total number of guns they possessed.The findings showed that 43 percent of men reported owning a gun, with 11 percent owning military-style rifles, and only 7 percent of men had attempted some form of penis enlargement.Contrary to popular opinion, the team found that men who were less dissatisfied with their penis size—in other words, who were content with their penises—were more likely to own guns.
