We thought it was really only women’s mags that took an interest in the matter, but according to listener Gareth, academia has scrutinised the wang-shoe ratio too:
With regards to the penis and shoe size question:

Two science papers, researching the myth. First can’t read and too lazy to search, second says no correlation.
Dammit! I’m going to have to scratch those plans for my new business selling clown shoes to insecure gentlemen.
Confession time now, featuring the following revelation from Joe from New Hampshire:
I am one of the few who always ate Filet O’ Fish at McDonald’s. Even as a child I preferred the fish over burgers. In later years I worked at McD’s and only ate Filet (don’t you dare call it Fish!).
Don’t worry, I won’t! I fear Poseidon rising through my bathtaps to smite me down for insinuating that any of the inhabitants of His kingdom might be present in the substance that McDonalds terms ‘fish’.
One notable fact about the sandwich. During a normal lunch hour we would sell 2-3 Filet sandwiches. BUT, if it was raining you could count on selling at least 20! This happened virtually without fail and the enormity of the disparity baffled me.
I notice to this day that I, myself, crave fish when it rains. So, answer me this: do you wish for fish when it rains or have you noted this phenomenon for yourselves?
Can’t pretend I have; but readers, have you noticed your own stomachs associating water falling from the sky with a lunch of aquatic creatures? If enough of you have, we can probably get that quirk upgraded to a Syndrome, and Joe can lend his surname to it. Dare to dream.
