Quick chinese study, water is wet but still somewhat interesting.
Women were presented with 5 models of a man that only differed in penis size. One had the original, normal penis size. One had a penis size of only 78% of that of the original. And the next three had penises that were made bigger by respectively 22, 33 and 43%.
The model with the smallest penis was rated as the least attractive one and the 3 models with the larger penises were rated as more attractive than the original. Oddly enough the 22% and 33% models scored better than the 43% one. Maybe women didn't want to seem shallow? After all this was just a survey, who knows if they would have preferred the biggest one irl over the above average ones.
A bigger dick makes you more attractive and a smaller one decreases your attractiveness.
Interestingly the author point out that despite those variations in score, none of these models were rated as particularly attractive, women weren't all that impressed with the athletic mesomorphic guys with bigger than average penises. Hypergamy and crazy standards yet again
Study 3 examined women’s preferences for five male images varying only in length of the (nonerect) penis. In one figure,the penis was its original size (i.e., the same size as the original photograph used to model the image in the computer). In the remaining four images, penile length was modeled to be either smaller or larger than the original size.We had intended to alter penile lengths to be 80%, 120%, 130%, and 140% of original size. In the event, measurement of the actual images confirmed that they were 78%, 122%,133%, and 143% of original size, respectively. In all three studies, women rated each ofthe stimulus images on a six-point scale where 0 unattractive, 1 only slightly attractive,2 mildly attractive, 3 moderately attractive, 4 very attractive, and 5 extremely attractive. The scale appeared next to each image, as in previous studies (Dixson et al.,2003).
ANOVA revealed an overall effect of penile length on attractiveness ratings (F[4,1276]¼29.59,P<0.0001). Women rated the figure with the shortest penis (reduced to 78% of normal length) as least attractive, followed by the original and largest images, with the intermediate (þ22% andþ33%) lengths yielding the highest ratings (Fig. 3). However, none of the images was rated as being moderately attractive (score 3) on average. The highest ratings were mean 1.87 and mean 1.84 for images in which the penis was 22% or 33% longer in the original, respectively (it should be recalled that a rating of 1 slightly attractive, and 2 mildly attractive). All images used in study 3 depicted the same mesomorphic front-posed figure, lacking trunk hair,and were identical except for their genitalia.The image depicting an unaltered penile length and lacking trunk hair also formed part of study 2, on masculine hirsuteness. In that study, this figure scored a mean score of 2.48, whereas in the study on penile size the identical image was rated as significantly less attractive, with a mean score of 1.38. An unpaired t-test revealed that this difference was significant (P<0.0001)

Studies of human physique and sexual attractiveness: sexual preferences of men and women in China - PubMed
Men and women at Northwest University (n = 631), Xi'an, China, were asked to rate the attractiveness of male or female figures manipulated to vary somatotype, waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), secondary sexual traits, and other features. In study 1, women rated the average masculine somatotype as most...
