A woman has gone viral after opening up about her experience sleeping with a man she believes had a micropenis.
Micropenis is often used online as an insult or joke, but medically it refers to a rare condition affecting around 0.6 percent of the global population, according to The Cleveland Clinic.
Dawn, who posts under the handle @ur_fav_dawn, shared the story in a TikTok video that has now been viewed more than 77,000 times.
In the video, she explained that she "used to be a sugar mommy" and had been speaking to a "really sweet" man who regularly bought her gifts before asking her out for dinner and drinks.
She agreed to the date because he "was so nice" to her, and the pair later headed back to a hotel together.
Dawn explained they were "doing their own thing" before she realized something unexpected.
"So I'm like, okay, maybe he's just, like, not all the way there," she remarked. "Yes, I kind of keep doing my thing. I'm not a quitter...I will not judge. This is just out of my wheelhouse. I've never experienced anything like this."
She said the pair continued trying to have sex, even after things did not change.
"I'm like, we're going to keep going, right? So, we like keep going, and it gets to a point where he's like, can you get on top? I'm a trooper," she said. "So I get on top, right? And it literally, guys, still hasn't changed."
Dawn later admitted: "I can't work with that," and revealed that the man’s penis did not "go in".
"It was like friction at this point," she remarked.
Despite the awkward experience, Dawn said the man treated her extremely well afterward, giving her "a lot of money" and booking her "a really, really nice hotel room."
"He left me there just to have by myself, no pressure or anything, he's like, all right, it was great, honestly, such a sweet man, and no judgment towards him, it was just, um, nothing, I'd never experienced that before," she explained.
"I don't know the chances of me ever experiencing that again," she continued, before adding that he must have a "micro penis".
"Someone in the wild that's pretty f***ing cool anyways," she concluded.
Many TikTok users praised Dawn for not mocking the man during her storytime video.
"You made him feel wanted for that time. I can’t imagine how those people feel going through life being ridiculed and laughed at," one person wrote.
Another commented: "You are such a sweet girl and handled like a trooper!"
According to World Population Review, the average erect penis size in the United States is around 5.6 inches. A micropenis is medically defined as measuring 3.67 inches or less when erect.
Per Medical News Today, experts say hormonal issues are the most common cause of the condition, particularly problems involving testosterone during pregnancy or infancy.
Doctors say a lack of testosterone production, or the body not responding properly to testosterone, can affect normal genital development.
In some cases, what appears to be a micropenis may actually be caused by other conditions, including swelling in the scrotum or a "buried penis," where surrounding fat tissue makes the penis less visible.
