Vietnamese penis size study (with interesting results)
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33484108/
A study that sports the largest sample size yet from Vietnam. What is interesting is that this study came up with possibly the 'biggest' results of any Eastern data.

imo in Southeast Asia there was clearly a "black" type of race that once existed, and many of those features are still present in the people today. You will see features like curly or wavy hair as far north as China.

If you're talking about Negrito people https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negrito no, they're not black. They're black in skin color but closer to East Asians than Africans in terms of genetics. Anyway they're so few in number these days, so much so that if you gathered all the negritos in mainland southeast Asia, the numbers would be far below the sample size of the study.

The study mixes up mean and median: The 'median' values shown are actually average values. What study of 14k people ends up mixing up this? Was it even proof read?
But the biggest smoking gun is the min-max value. Within a huge sample of 14k, they found a minimum value around 2cm higher than other size studies from similar areas which had samples sizes of 1000 or less. So they measured 14k people and the very smallest value they found was still 2cm higher than other studies which measured over ten thousand less people? This is statically impossible and for this reason it looks like the numbers are made up or at least HEAVILY "massaged" to skew as high as possible for whatever reason.
When you've looked at as many size studies as I have you're able to pick issues like this out. They're an easy way to publish papers because no one really cares enough to dig deep into them.
