摘要

We use national probability data from the 2023 Masculinity, Sexual Health, and Politics survey to test whether conservative Protestant men in the USA are (a) more dissatisfied with the appearance/size of their penises and (b) more likely to have attempted penis enlargement. Across all three outcomes, we failed to observe any theoretically meaningful differences. Although conservative Protestant men consistently report greater dissatisfaction with the appearance and size of their penises than men who affiliated with other religions (a mixed group including Jewish, Buddhist, and Muslim men, among others), there were no religious affiliation differences in penis enlargement behavior. Our analyses cast further doubt on the theory of evangelicalism and phallocentric masculine insecurity at the individual level.
