Nasalization by Nasalis larvatus: Larger noses audiovisually advertise conspecifics in proboscis monkeys
Science Advances 21 Feb 2018:
Abstract
Male proboscis monkeys have uniquely enlarged noses that are prominent adornments, which may have evolved through their sexually competitive
harem group social system. Nevertheless, the ecological roles of the
signals encoded by enlarged noses remain unclear. We found significant correlations among nose, body, and testis sizes and a clear link between
nose size and number of harem females. Therefore, there is evidence
supporting both male-male competition and female choice as causal factors
in the evolution of enlarged male noses. We also observed that nasal enlargement systematically modifies the resonance properties of male vocalizations, which probably encode male quality. Our results indicate
that the audiovisual contributions of enlarged male noses serve as advertisements to females in their mate selection. This is the first
primate research to evaluate the evolutionary processes involved in
linking morphology, acoustics, and socioecology with unique masculine characteristics.

Men With Larger Noses Have Bigger Penises, According to New Study
Your beak may be giving away more than you think
BY MEN'S HEALTH 05/05/2021
Published in the medical journal Basic and Clinical Andrology, the
researchers of the study found that men with larger noses had a ‘stretched penile length’ of at least 5.3 inches, while men with smaller noses had a penis length of 4.1 inches erect.
The team of researchers drew this conclusion by looking at the dead corpses of 126 men within three days of death and measured different parts of their body. After taking into account varying factors such height, weight and measurements of the penis (there were no links between feet size and appendage size, before you ask), the authors of the study then worked out the "stretched penile length" (SPL) of each cadaver. This was measured by, and sorry to be so graphic,
by pulling the penis up as far as it would go. Hopefully they used gloves.

Nose size indicates maximum penile length
Abstract
Background
In a previous report, we investigated whether the size of male genitalia similarly exposed to serum testosterone during aging could change with age
and found
that penile length almost stopped increasing during adolescence and decreased in older males. In this report, to determine what factors other than age
are related to penile length, we performed a multivariate analysis of the relationships between stretched penile length (SPL) and other measurements
of genital organs, nose size, height and body weight in 126 adults in
their 30s–50s.
