A woman whose boyfriend has a 'micropenis' has answered the one question many people seem to be asking.
Approximately 1.5 in 10,000 newborns in the US are born with a micropenis, while it affects around 0.6 per cent of people worldwide, Cleveland Clinic says.
It's an extremely rare condition, and Jake Timms is one of those who has it, with his manhood typically under 2.8 inches when erect; but that's not something that bothers his girlfriend Penny Talbot.
Before the two Brits entered a relationship two years ago, Penny and Jake were friends, but when they began dating, she says Jake brought it up immediately.

"But he wasn't embarrassed about it at all, in fact I would say he was proud of his size." she told The Sun. "I think he just wanted me to know in case I was disappointed, but that wasn't the case at all."
If anything, Penny said their sex life is more fulfilling than ever.
She told the Daily Star: "When I saw Jake’s for the first time, I wasn’t horrified, it was the opposite. I thought it was absolutely perfect. Jake and I have a very healthy sex life and I’m always left satisfied."
Penny went on to say she and Jake have a 'very healthy sex life', adding to The Sun: "For me, it isn’t just about the penetration and climax of sex, but the foreplay and everything that leads up to that.
"When I saw Jake’s penis for the first time, I wasn’t horrified, it was the opposite. I thought it was absolutely perfect."
But while she might think that, his friends often make fun of him for it, however, he is able to take it in good humor.
Penny continued: "It’s just typical boys’ banter, and I’ve heard them refer to it as a piece of dental floss before, but he just laughs it off."
She added that even his mom 'giggles along' at his jokes, like saying his two older brothers 'got all the goods'.
Penny herself lives with endometriosis - a chronic health condition that affects roughly ten percent of 'reproductive age' women and girls, roughly 190 million people, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO).
Endometriosis happens when tissue that is similar to lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus, so as a result, sex can sometimes be painful, which is where Jake's 'smaller' penis is 'perfect'.
Penny continues: "People always ask me if Jake’s penis is the smallest I have ever had, and to be honest I try to blank out all my previous sexual partners.
"I mean, yes, he is below average, but for me it’s never been about a man’s size.
"There are lots of other ways to spice up your sex life and for you both to be left satisfied in the bedroom, and believe it or not, it doesn’t all just come down to your bloke’s manhood."
Jake also shares a similar sentiment, telling The Sun: "It’s not the size that matters, but what you do with it."
Another man with a micropenis, Ant Smith, said last year that he had low self esteem as a result of his penis, however, he had since come to accept it.
"Somehow the size of your penis has become linked to how much of a “man” you are, which is nonsense." he said on This Morning. "My wife assured me my size made no difference."
