    You do occasionally see flaccid cocks in media and IRL, but only from guys confident enough to show it in the first place, which skews public perception a fair bit.

    I went to school with a girl who’d only ever seen erections drawn. To her first boyfriend, she said “is that it?” the first time she saw a boner. It was a perfectly average cock, but she’d been expecting something the size of a cucumber

      You do, but sometimes those aren’t real. I remember watching some behind the scenes stuff for Spartacus, which has a lot of flacid cocks on screen, and some of the actors wore prosthetic cocks instead of showing their own. I assume that larger men were more likely to show their own, and smaller men were more likely to have a prosthetic (though I have no evidence for this), so it still skews things.
