Women, on the other hand, will develop lighter, smooth, hairless skin, large clear eyes, pert breasts, glossy hair, and even features [...]"

Personally, I think this report is very clearly written by a man ;-)

That's what I assumed. Though I guess it could still be right -- maybe men with small penises are more shy, because of social pressure :) That'd be a joint memetic/genetic evolution, but it could happen.

*thinks* For that matter, what about anal sex for men? I've never asked what sort of penis is best. Of course, the best would be selected *against* :)
