How Women May Have Shaped Men’s Penises
- irickt 14y agoAnd the ancestors of female fleas shaped flea penises. Rather unremarkable result, and link baiting by the Smithsonian Magazine!

- jongos 14y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong but for most of history throughout most societies women had no to little choice as to who their mates were. So this is unlikely to be due to recent selection. Going back farther to pre-History (written History) it seems like this choice was also non-existent, given that Alpha males used their brawn to chase away potential suitors and females flocked to whoever could best care for them and their offspring. So one might conclude that, from an evolutionary perspective anyways, the selection was more likely a preferred trait of the species passed on by these alpha male figures. But this seems to indicate choice had little to due with it, rather sheer physical dominance over others who were weeded out.
