&lt;p&gt;Penises are as unique as the people they hang from, and they&amp;rsquo;re all good. More than good, really.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There&amp;rsquo;s no such thing as a bad shape or size &amp;mdash; just bad information on how to use it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here&amp;rsquo;s how to feel great about what you&amp;rsquo;ve got and what to do with it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;css-0&quot;&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;What&amp;rsquo;s the typical shape?&lt;span class=&quot;css-rlu68n&quot;&gt;&lt;picture class=&quot;css-16pk1is&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://i0.wp.com/post.healthline.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/257877-There_Are_20_Different_Penis_Types-and-They_are_All_NormalIllustration-1-1296x1000.jpg?w=1155&amp;amp;h=2100&quot; width=&quot;867&quot; height=&quot;668&quot; class=&quot;css-1lwg88w&quot; /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a data-pin-custom=&quot;true&quot; data-share-url=&quot;https://post.healthline.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/257877-There_Are_20_Different_Penis_Types-and-They_are_All_NormalIllustration-1-1296x1000.jpg&quot; data-event=&quot;|Sharebar more|Pinterest&quot; data-pin-log=&quot;button_pinit&quot; data-pin-href=&quot;https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button?guid=rntPrMf4iynA-2&amp;amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthline.com%2Fhealth%2Ftypes-of-penises&amp;amp;media=https%3A%2F%2Fpost.healthline.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F12%2F257877-There_Are_20_Different_Penis_Types-and-They_are_All_NormalIllustration-1-1296x1000.jpg&amp;amp;description=20%20Types%20of%20Penises%3A%20Size%2C%20Shape%2C%20Sex%20Positions%2C%20and%20More&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;css-8yl26h&quot;&gt;Share on Pinterest&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If there&amp;rsquo;s anything typical about penis shape, it&amp;rsquo;s that most tend to be cylinder-ish, often with a wider &amp;mdash; or at least a more pronounced &amp;mdash; head.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Curved upward&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like a banana, this penis curves slightly upward, at least when it&amp;rsquo;s erect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The upward curve means an advantage when it comes to stimulating all the right spots for toe-curling, full-body orgasms: the&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/g-spot-in-women&quot;&gt;G-spot&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/a-spot&quot;&gt;A-spot&lt;/a&gt;, and&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/prostate-orgasm&quot;&gt;prostate&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;You can keep it simple with any variation of the missionary position and still rock their world thanks to that curve. That goes for P-in-V and&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/what-does-anal-feel-like&quot;&gt;anal sex&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Curved downward&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Flip that banana around and you&amp;rsquo;ve got this shape, which is basically a penis with a slight downward curve. Again, the curve is noticeable only during an erection.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Turn that frown upside down with rear-entry positions that make A-, G-, and P-spot stimulation a breeze.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/comfortable-sex-positions&quot;&gt;Riding into the sunset&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;is a must-try!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;C-shaped&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This type of penis has a noticeable curve to the right. If you or your partner is rockin&amp;rsquo; a major curve, a willingness to experiment with different angles is a must.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Positions that allow you to work the curve toward the front wall of the vagina or rectum give you the same hot-spot advantage as those with banana shapes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Try the T-bone. This delectable position begins with the penetrating partner on their side with their curve pointed toward the sky. The receiving partner lies on their back in a T angle and drapes their legs over their partner&amp;rsquo;s hip, ready for P-in-V or anal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Straight&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The straight penis maintains pretty much the same shape from shaft to head.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With no angles to accommodate, you can eenie-meenie-miney-mo your way through every sex position&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/guide-to-consent&quot;&gt;you both consent to&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;with little-to-no tweaking required.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Give and get the most with any position that makes it easy to reach each other&amp;rsquo;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/erogenous-zones&quot;&gt;erogenous zones&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for simultaneous manual or&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/sex-toys-to-match-your-personality&quot;&gt;sex toy&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;play.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Bigger base with narrow head&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This penis is thicker at the base and narrows as you get closer to the head, giving it a cone-esque shape.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like other shapes, this one&amp;rsquo;s got some solid perks. The narrower head makes for easier entry, and a wider base provides more stimulation the deeper you go.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;If you&amp;rsquo;re both open to anal, the cone is basically built for butt play because the gradual increase in girth is perfect for&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/how-to-stretch-anus&quot;&gt;stretching&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;the anus. Use a lot of&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/lube-shopping-guide-types&quot;&gt;lube&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and tease with just the tip before going deeper.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Narrow base with larger head&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The hammer penis, which is long and thin with a much larger head, has all the makings for a good nailing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Wink.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The extra girth at the tip stimulates the vaginal or rectal walls, which will feel good for both of you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Choose positions that allow the receiver to open wide and stimulate their clit or penis at the same time for easier entry. Classics like missionary and cow are totally hammer-friendly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;css-0&quot;&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Where do length and girth come in?&lt;span class=&quot;css-rlu68n&quot;&gt;&lt;picture class=&quot;css-129gw94&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://i0.wp.com/post.healthline.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/257877-There_Are_20_Different_Penis_Types-and-They_are_All_NormalIllustration-2-1296x1000.jpg?w=1155&amp;amp;h=2100&quot; width=&quot;856&quot; height=&quot;661&quot; class=&quot;css-1lwg88w&quot; /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a data-pin-custom=&quot;true&quot; data-share-url=&quot;https://post.healthline.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/257877-There_Are_20_Different_Penis_Types-and-They_are_All_NormalIllustration-2-1296x1000.jpg&quot; data-event=&quot;|Sharebar more|Pinterest&quot; data-pin-log=&quot;button_pinit&quot; data-pin-href=&quot;https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button?guid=rntPrMf4iynA-3&amp;amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthline.com%2Fhealth%2Ftypes-of-penises&amp;amp;media=https%3A%2F%2Fpost.healthline.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F12%2F257877-There_Are_20_Different_Penis_Types-and-They_are_All_NormalIllustration-2-1296x1000.jpg&amp;amp;description=20%20Types%20of%20Penises%3A%20Size%2C%20Shape%2C%20Sex%20Positions%2C%20and%20More&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;css-8yl26h&quot;&gt;Share on Pinterest&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Penises don&amp;rsquo;t just come in different shapes, but lengths and thicknesses, too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regardless of the combo you&amp;rsquo;re working with, the right moves can make them all&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/blended-orgasm&quot;&gt;O-inducing&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Smaller-than-average length and girth&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &amp;ldquo;gherkin&amp;rdquo; falls on the shorter and narrower side of&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bedbible.com/penis-size-statistics/&quot;&gt;average&lt;/a&gt;, but don&amp;rsquo;t let its smaller stature fool you. It doesn&amp;rsquo;t need to be big to be ahh-mazing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;If you wanna go deep, some positions are better than others.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/how-to-do-doggy-style&quot;&gt;Doggy style&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;is one of the best for any type of sex with a smaller-than-average penis. If you&amp;rsquo;re flexible,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/small-penis-sex&quot;&gt;the pile driver&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;is fan-freaking-tastic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Shorter-than-average length and thick girth&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &amp;ldquo;kielbasa&amp;rdquo; is shorter, stout, and able to stimulate the vaginal or rectal walls like nobody&amp;rsquo;s business.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are oodles of sensitive nerve-endings packed in and around either entry point, so the shorter length makes for some pretty toe-curling penetration for both parties.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Use lots of lube, take it slow, and master the dog positions, like traditional doggy or downward-facing dog (yes, like the&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/fitness-exercise/beginner-yoga-poses&quot;&gt;yoga pose&lt;/a&gt;), if you want to go deep and hit the G-, A-, or&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/male-g-spot&quot;&gt;P-spot&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Average length and girth&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Congrats, Goldicocks! The &amp;ldquo;cucumber&amp;rdquo; isn&amp;rsquo;t too big or too small, but just right for any position you want to try.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Experiment to find your most mind-blowing positions! Try&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/alternate-sex-positions-penetration&quot;&gt;variations&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;on all the classics and throw some&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/standing-sex-positions&quot;&gt;standing sex&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;positions into the mix.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Larger-than-average length and girth&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &amp;ldquo;salami&amp;rdquo; is the type of appendage you&amp;rsquo;re most likely to see in porn: long and thick.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While it may leave some jumping for joy, it can also be a little daunting to take in &amp;mdash; literally.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The key to making the most of it is lots of lube and positions that let the receiver have more control.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Lube up and try positions that allow the partner on the receiving end to keep their legs tight to control the depth. You can do this with&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/big-penis-sex&quot;&gt;missionary, spooning, and even rear-entry positions&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Larger-than-average length and thin girth&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To be clear, the &amp;ldquo;pencil&amp;rdquo; type isn&amp;rsquo;t actually pencil-thin, but it&amp;rsquo;s notably longer and narrower than average.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To make the best use of a&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/mens-health/thin-penis&quot;&gt;thin penis&lt;/a&gt;, stick to tight-legged positions. The tighter space is pleasurable for both and still lets the receiver control how much of the length they take in.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro tip&lt;/strong&gt;: You&amp;rsquo;ve gotta&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/spooning&quot;&gt;try spooning&lt;/a&gt;. Coming in from behind creates a tight space and requires extra length &amp;mdash; which this type&amp;rsquo;s got &amp;mdash; to reach. Spooning also works for anal and can be ramped up by&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.healthline.com/health/health-sex/finding-harness-dildo-pegging&quot;&gt;adding a dildo&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for some DP action. You&amp;rsquo;re welcome.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;h3 class=&quot;&quot;&gt;Why is my penis curved?&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is extremely common for a penis to be something other than straight. The average penis may point slightly to the left or right. During an erection, a man&#39;s penis may point straight up or tilt downward as a function of age and individual differences. Every man&#39;s penis is different.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A crooked or bent penis isn&#39;t usually cause for concern, unless a man notices a sudden change in the shape of the penis, experiences pain during or after an erection or isn&#39;t able to have intercourse at all. A rare, but treatable, condition called Peyronie&#39;s disease can result from the build-up of plaque inside the penis (in the tunica albuginea), which leads to painful erections and curvature of the penis.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A man may also notice changes to the shape or angle of his penis after trauma or injury to the area as a result of scar tissue, in which case he should check in with his healthcare provider. Otherwise, much of the variation in the appearance of the penis is normal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Why some penises are curvy&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;&quot;&gt;Written by Emily Nagoski, Ph.D.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;&quot;&gt;Here&#39;s another one of those things I forget people don&#39;t know.&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I like penises on principle. I like clitorises too. In fact, I think the whole phallus situation is pretty swell, if you&#39;ll pardon the expression, and worthy of celebration.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;&quot;&gt;Penises vary. Not so much as clitorises do, but still. One of their main variable features is the direction in which they point.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why do penises do this?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;&quot;&gt;Well. The shaft of the penis is actually made of three different chambers: the corpus spongiosum (spongy body,&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;how I do love Latin)&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;and the corpora cavernosa (cavernous bodies).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If one of those chambers is longer than the others, it ends up curved, see? If the corpus spongiosum is longer than the corpora cavernosa, he&#39;ll point UP, and if it&#39;s shorter than the corpora cavernosa, he&#39;ll point DOWN. Ditto right and left, and the greater the difference the greater the curve. Dig?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;&quot;&gt;(Something to note is that the female homologue of the penis, the clitoris, doesn&#39;t curve visibly, because the shaft isn&#39;t made of multiple chambers.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unless it causes pain, there&#39;s no need to do anything about it. It&#39;s just normal variation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;&quot;&gt;There are various tricks you can do with a curvy penis that you can&#39;t with a straight one. It&#39;s basically an automatic G-spot stimulator, given the right angle of penetration and often can provide more comprehensive vulva stimulation during&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=frottage&quot;&gt;frottage&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I find there&#39;s a cultural prejudice against curvy penises and, as with all cultural prejudices, I frown on it. We like things straight in our culture, but I like things a little crooked.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;&quot;&gt;My view is that curvy penises exhibit a kind of wabi sabi, the Japanese aesthetic of imperfection as beauty.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://getcoral.app/journal/350/real-things-have-scratches/&quot;&gt;Like scars&lt;/a&gt;. But where scars show us how a life has been lived in a body, a curvy penis shows us how a fetus grew, how a child aged into manhood: the entire cascade of biological developmental processes is encapsulated within the idiomatic, transcendent asymmetry of a curvy penis.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Really, it&#39;s the perfect subject for haiku. (I won&#39;t be the one to write it, though.)&lt;/p&gt;
