It's not the length but the width that counts, I am told. At least among wimmin.

[Valmy]

Oh that is cm?  Thank God I was really concerned there for a second.

Why does it say length and girth on the same graph?  Anyway if that graph is accurate the average is 13 cms long and 11 cms wide so more squarish than I would have thought.

Why does it say length and girth on the same graph?

Because girth (aka diameter) is also measured by a linear length.

[Grey Fox]

Man, am I going to have to measure girth.

Man, am I going to have to measure girth.

  Here's hoping for one out of two, eh?

[Valmy]

I will probably need to wash the tape measure after this.

I thought the thread would be shorter than this but it has covered a wide range of topics.

Diameter and not circumfrance?

The horizontal axis is either measuring girth or percentile.  It can't do both.

You are correct.  Circumference.

I fail grade school geometry.
