"Scrotum" comes from the Latin word for "purse." It is the purse that holds the testicles. Scrotums can look as different as different purses. (Will his be a tote, clutch, Canteen bag, drawstring, half moon, hobo, satche, swagger or school bag? How about a silver studded Versace or a classy Claiborne or business-minded DKNY—not that any of us guys had the option of shopping for our scrotums.)

Women often assume that the penis is somehow glued or stapled to the front of a man's pelvic bone. In reality, it runs beneath his testicles and anchors inside his pelvis. Some men enjoy having the "invisible" part of the penis massaged. Push into the space between the testicles with your fingertips and gently rub, or massage the flat space behind his testicles.
Shape—From these drawings of real-life erections, you can see that terms like "6 inches" or "normal" are somewhat meaningless. All of these erect penises are normal, yet very different from each other. One even points down.
Size—According to a study at the University of California at San Francisco, the average length of a flaccid penis is 3.4 inches, while the average length of an erect penis is around 5 inches. Most guys are within 2 inches of these figures. However, the way researchers in San Francisco measure a penis might be different from the way researchers in Rome do it. The exact same penis might be 6" in the City By the Bay, but only 5.75" when measured in the City of the Seven Hills.
