"Micropenis in studies
A relatively high incidence of alleles believed to cause the micropenis condition have been found in a Japanese study of patients with micropenis, consisting of 81 Japanese patients. The presence of a micropenis in these subjects is considered to be due to a higher mutation rate for the SRD5A2 gene, which encodes for the enzyme 5{alpha}-reductase-2 and plays a role in male sex differentiation.[5] The mutation led to decreased expression of the enzyme, which in turn results in penises with erect lengths of -2.5 standard deviations. In the case of the Japanese sample, hormone treatments were also studied and found to be effective, resulting in penis lengths at nearly the average of age-matched Japanese controls (2-3 cm). After extended study of various micropenises, it can be concluded that this condition has severe effects both mentally and physically for the patient."

I saw something on discovery a while back about another condition where the penis retracts inside the body when flaccid, but when the dude gets a chubby it will come out of the body an be normal in size. The first dude said when he's got hard on his cock is normal.
either way, sucks to be all of those guys!
