===Kinsey study of foreskin length===
Sex researcher Alfred C. Kinsey (1963) carried out a study of the amount of the [[glans penis]] covered by the foreskin in white college men. He reported:
* None, foreskin kept retracted: 11.2%
* Foreskin just covers corona: 16.5%
* Most of head covered, tip shows: 17.6%
* Head completely covered: 48.4%
* Foreskin extends beyond head: 6.4%<ref>Gebhard, P. H., Johnson, A. B., & Kinsey, A. C. (1998). <i>The Kinsey Data: Marginal Tabulations of the 1938–1963 Interviews Conducted by the Institute for Sex Research.</i> Indiana University Press. Table 81.</ref>
Please note that the last two categories, totalling 54.8%, provide complete covereage of the [[glans penis]].
