Wondering Why Your Penis is Small?Watch This!

PETA, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, have published a video warning mothers that eating chicken during their pregnancy can give their sons small penises. But regardless of the alarmist claim, there appears to be a bit of science behind it.

"Eating chicken can make your kid's dick small," as the video goes on to claim that chemicals called phthalates are found in some chicken flesh. "The more chicken consumed, the smaller the dick," the video claimed.

While the claims seem bizarre, there is a little bit of evidence behind it. PETA later linked Facebook followers to a study called "Environmental phthalate exposure in relation to reproductive outcomes and other health endpoints in humans."  

"We also see a direct relationship between DEHP metabolites (most notably MEHP) and penile width, which were not seen previously. Additionally, the MEHP metabolites were significantly and inversely related to testicular descent," the report outlined. These findings warrant current concerns that low dose phthalate exposures affect several markers of human male genital development.
