A new study has revealed the 'Goldilocks measurement' when it comes to what penis size women prefer.

A new study asked 1,400 women about their preferences in the bedroom and revealed some interesting results.

The research, conducted by sexual health site Bad Girls Bible, has revealed what size penis women prefer.

According to the study, more than two thirds of those surveyed admitted they wouldn't be totally satisfied if their partner's penis measured less than four inches.

Meanwhile, a large number of women - nine in 10 - said they would not be satisfied if their partner's penis was less than three inches, also known as a 'micropenis'.

A micropenis is a medical term used to describe a penis that's much smaller than average.

However, it seems there's a 'Goldilocks measurement' when it comes to penis size, as many women said they wouldn't be happy with anything too big, either.

For example, 50 percent of those surveyed said anything over nine inches was too big, while 56.6 percent admitted that if a partner had a penis that was too large, it could actually contribute to them ending the relationship.

And it's not just the length that's important; over two thirds claimed that width is equally crucial for sexual satisfaction.

Turns out there is an ideal length though - between six and eight inches.

Bad Girls Bible explain: "We now know that most women don’t particularly enjoy penises that are either too large or too small.

"So, what is the preferred penis size range for women, that is big enough for full sexual satisfaction but not so big that it becomes uncomfortable? In other words, what is the 'Goldilocks' penis size range?

"Based on our survey results: 6-8 inches (15.24-20.32 cm) is the preferred or Goldilocks penis size range for women."

The average penis size in the UK is somewhere between 5.1 and 5.5 inches long.

And it seems to vary by country, too.

Research has recently revealed that where you live in the world apparently correlates to size.

The list, put together by WorldData.com, sees Ecuador in first place, with the average size standing at 6.93 inches while erect.

Then there was Cameroon at 6.56 inches long, followed by Bolivia at 6.5 inches.

Over in Europe, the Netherlands had the biggest size, with an average of 6.24 inches, followed by France with 6.2 and Italy with six inches exactly.
